XEmacs's configure scripts don't behave like normal configure scripts in a
few interesting ways, enough that it doesn't quite "feel" like autoconf to
me.  But then, XEmacs's build system is amazingly complex.  It generally
seems to work mostly okay, but it'd be nice if they hadn't gotten quite so
custom.
