Well, I must admit I don't like autoconf, and indeed our make engine is not
yet suitable enough for extra-libs testing and environment variables setting
(but I'm working on it). Still I leave it to Pavel to decide what to choose,
I can live with autoconf but can't guarantee that I would manage to support
this bird-like language ;)
