I am attempting to create a cross platform open source C code library and would like to do my development using Xcode. But since Xcode does not run on other OSes I will not be able to give my "customers" the Xcode project file. Instead I want to create autoconf style makefiles. Does Xcode support this? If so, will it generate the basic files for me?

Yes and no. An Xcode project can include a makefile-based target, and it uses the make mechanism to do the building. (In that case you don't get certain features of the Xcode build system.) Just choose "External Build System" from the New Project dialog.

The "no" is that Xcode won't write a makefile for you. You still have to create the makefile the old-fashioned way.
