I agree. It does not add (if not break) anything under linux. The reason for the conversion is to avoid using mingw under windows (so not even useful for lyx/cygwin) to simplify installation. The real benefit is that configure.py is cleaner and more maintainable than configure.m4, so we can add new features (like the conversion of old layout files, searching windows registry) easily.
