This is plagued with corner cases such as config.guess not being available in all cases (make dist, make distcheck, etc.). The corner cases could maybe fixed by just making this a proper Automake project, with Makefile.am including a top- level Makefile.am so that automake+autoreconf pull in the proper stuff like config.guess. HOWEVER, the top-level GNUmakefile.in could include the same Makefile-files, and therefore also include the same source code definitions, but build/install them in a better way.

If this were to work with all edge cases, this would be ideal: Provide a
configurescript followed bymakeandmake installsteps, but have the newGNUmakefile.inprovide the quick and direct build-and/or-installs the oldGNUmakefiledid.Unfortunately, the corner cases are difficult to fix.
