You can just propose whatever changes you want to include here, I'm in
close contact with upstream, especially for the build system, so I'll take
care of coordination.
I agree there is some fishy things going on with FLINT_TUNE and CFLAGS and
surely other things.
And don't say "let's switch to autotools" unless you wanna be in charge of
the build system maintenance as Bill Hart will definitely not want to
maintain it.
Be also aware there won't be any FLINT release before at least the dev
meeting in may.
So I think we should just make minor modifications and get this in
quickly.
It's been bitrotting for so long...
I'll up another spkg based on #14241 not touching the ulong stuff.
