Hi Alan,
I started with configure.ac and will get back to you if I need any help.

Hi devs,
I am in the process of writing a build script for devs. With a
script like that, you might not find it difficult to switch between
different versions of prerequisites, deployment locations, etc. I am
thinking of incorporating things like checking for required files
(e.g. specs), etc with this script.
Thoughts please...

Our build script for devs is the traditional
./bootstrap && ./configure <blah> && make
so the best place for improved build scripting is in configure.ac and
src/Makefile.am. There's plenty of room for improvement, I look
forward to you contributions. Shout if you need any pointers, the info
files on autoconf and automake are the best starting point I know of.
Cheers,
Alan.
