Why not? Both cmake and scons require the users to have them installed
before they can use these build systems. None of them work just by
simply doing svn export. So why not assume the same for autotools? Why
not require users who want to use autotools to have them installed?

I have a hard time seeing why removing a few text files will suddenly
make "svn export" a lot simpler.
