It's one big Makefile that contains all dependencies. What would be the
advantage of your approach as shown in your mail from the 23rd of april?
My configure framework actually consists of two parts. One part is a library
of small, confined tests that are loaded on demand. And the other
(optional) part allows one to define targets (multiple objects, static
libraries, applications, etc) and automatically generate a decent Makefile
that contains all dependencies and other targets like install, clean,
depend, etc.
In the end, is has to be a portable and modular autoconf/make replacement
written in plain shell script without the bloat, learning curve, version
incompatibilities, m4 and everything else that sucks about autotools ;-)
