I fear you both underestimate the amount of work that is needed to replace the auto stuff. After all, there is a reson why it is so complicated. Aopart from what a regular developer uses, there are things like "make dist" and "make distcheck" that need to work. Let me restate that a build system in parallel to the existing one does not make sense. It soon gets outdated, and if not it costs double maintenance work. If I where you I would rather try to get the existing build system work for your platforms. I agree that the auto stuff is not nice, but this option will be far less work than replacing it with something else. We don't have enough man power for such a big project. Of course I can't (and don't want) to force you to stop working on this, it is just my opinion that you could be more useful for the whole project if you continue with bug fixing and implementing new features.
