This would probably also involve changing how the spkgs are built
since typically autotools will process a .in file to replace
constants.  So, such a change would probably involve moving all of the
spkg-install (etc.) files out of the spkg files so that autotools can
process them.  I think that change on its  one might be more
worthwhile.
