Interesting... this looks like a solution looking for a problem.  There is no problem the autotools present to GNOME that could not be solved.  All the weaknesses you listed about autotools clearly are not issues for GNOME developers, or else GNOME won't be where it is today.

Gnome currently uses the GNU Autotools for building all
projects. Autotools is hard to work with and complicated and there are
lots of techically superior build systems out there. Therefore, I
suggest that GNOME should gradually replace Autotools with scons
(www.scons.org).
