Build time "configure" scripts are not how we build things in ON. If
you want to be in ON, you need to be a better citizen and follow ON
conventions. That means no dynamic testing of the build environment,
but use Makefiles that follow our conventions.
rpcgen is a different matter... look at one of the other rpc client
programs to see how to achieve that. Its just a simple matter of some
Makefile rules, I believe.
If you want to preserve more of your own build infrastructure, then you
should be part of SFW rather than ON.
