Wonderful. This is professional and user-friendly at the same time.
What I understand from autotools, bootstrapping is only needed for
developer tasks (like changing dependencies) and a source distribution
for end users should ideally include the configure script. I was never
aware that target 'dist' includes the configure script. The package in
your tarball builds smooth with './configure' and 'make' (on my linux
box preconfigured to build pd). With target 'dist', a new source
tarball pops up in the tree. Cool!
