It's pretty easy, really:

-----------------------------
$cat configure
#!/bin/sh
echo Done

$cat makefile
all:
    ./the-REAL-buildscript-maybe-even-written-in-D

install:
    ./the-REAL-install-script

-----------------------------

Ok, granted, that sounds rather tongue-in-cheek, but I'm fairily serious 
about it: Is there some reason you need to actually put it all through 
autotools? I'm no expert, but autotools strikes me as just a collection of 
workarounds to paper over some of the crappiness of C/C++ and make. Why 
apply it to D?
