Doing so _manually_ (as a shell script or something) is not particularly

layer on top to implement the GNU configure interface.
It would be cool to have shell libraries you could use for whipping your
own configure.  I.e. no m4 macros but powerful shell functions you can
just call.

And once again: If this did not work easily on w32 too it might stop
people from using it.

To be honest, I couldn't give the slightest about w32.  It's a pile of
crap that should have never seen the light of day, all political issues
left aside and I, FWIW, would not consider it when designing software.


I not sure why you tell me that. I see no reason why I should be interested in your opinion about it.

I am interested in getting the free software movement forward and "I know best" attitudes will not help.
