These libraries and tools can be also packaged and distributed regardless of the crt. However, if it is available in toplevel autoconf please support it properly, or just drop it. Of course it is easier for me in Gentoo to use the toplevel autoconf script, it worked so far, not sure why not just support it, but partial support is not the right way to go.
