I already noticed ;-)

I know that autotools realy realy suck lately. Very buggy and _awfully_ slow. 
Quite a number of projects (mplayer, ffmpeg, ... ) aren't using them anymore
But is there a strong reason for requiring the new version? If it's possible 
and not too much work, it would be great if older versions would work too.
