Just a thought - autotools-based software that uses xmkmf is not
actually using building Makefiles from Imakefiles, since that would be
redundant with the autotools. It just runs xmkmf to create a makefile
and then greps the parameter settings out of it. I wonder if it would
be useful to ship a completely crippled, autotools-only version of
xmkmf that just spits out a Makefile with the appropriate ac_im_
variable assignments? It would be useless for software that actually
uses Imake, and probably shouldn't overwrite a preexisting
installation of xmkmf for that reason, but there's a ton of OSS that
uses xmkmf from autotools..
