Don't even mention it. It's not very popular here. And I think I know
why. Auto* is broken, senseless, nonintuitive and slow as hell. OTOH
I find this system maybe not perfect, but quite suitable, and if I had
to make a choice between something like this and auto* for my project
I would choose a home-grown system. At least I can understand what the
system does, it's faster and shorter.
And that's probably the least flame one can get for mentioning autotools
here.
