As far as I'm aware the commitment level is as before. The issue is more
that people forget or don't have enough experience with cmake to make
the requisite changes. Once cmake is complete for linux targets (tests
and install still need quite a bit of work) we can relegate autoconf to
legacy only and then remove it (but that's a way in the future still I
think).

The simplest mistake is to add a new file and forget to put it in both
build systems. It would be good to have a single file list that somehow
fed both autoconf and cmake which would render that mistake impossible.
