Just to be clear: what's the trade-off here? That is, what is the alternative: not supporting running external scripts at all?
The alternative is to use a proper scripting language for configuration, so people don't need *external* scripts: waf (python), paludis (bash), cabal (haskell), cmake.
Yes, it's a lot of work to essentially port the relevant parts of autotools, but it might be a better idea in the long run.
