Yes, this patch was inspired by patching for a packaging system that
have all autotools' required variable exported.

Nowaday, most distro only cross-compiles some base system then build
other packages native-like with qemu-user-static. Except very limited
set of distro and some distro for embedded system, but notmuch is
unlikely shipped notmuch, so this could help only single packager.

So, I think this patch should be dropped.
