I just picked gettext/libintl as a known example of existing projects where --disable-auto-import is the desired (by *somebody*, doesn't matter who or why) behavior. There could be other end-users who, for whatever reason, want to avoid auto-import. Putting --enable-auto-import into the specs file makes that...tricky. -- Chuck
