I was assuming that this was a general question to the list and not to 
me in particular, as I think I have made my opinion clear about all of 
this long ago, i.e. use autopoint (leave things as they are) and move 
on, or "fix" things whichever way you like.

However, nobody else seems to want to answer your question, so here I go 
once again (wonder why :) )...

You may not like autopoint and there have been people claiming that 
building e17 (e17/apps/e) is broken, but in my opinion nobody has yet 
provided any serious "proof" like logs showing what fails when building 
from a clean checkout using the current setup.

You may not like autopoint, but the current e17 setup has been used by 
e16 for at least a year now without *any* complaints.

And as for the question...

As I assume you know, simply adding config.rpath just now (and removing 
autopoint from autogen.sh) will not work. You'll probably have to revert 
most of the changes I did when I introduced autopoint or run autopoint 
and commit most of the files it adds.

I'm not going to actually try doing this, but I'll take a guess that 
this can probably be made to work with automake-1.9 as well as 
automake-1.10, but break when autofoo-x.yy arrives.
