I don't necessarily see that as a reason to move. If we're hitting bugs in autoconf that are causing problems, and we can't get them fixed in the upstream, that's a reason. But switching build systems won't be frictionless, so I'm not in favor of it unless there's a clear payoff. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company
