It might not be worth the effort/disruption.
One advantage of using Makefile rules is that it's easy to override
the defaults, as you see in the examples above.
Not so hard with shell scripts either. Use source cfg.sh instead of
-include ./cfg.mk and everything

Perl is well suited to this task.
I'm sure some will object to Perl's syntax, but not I.
On MSVC 9, ssize_t is not defined, leading to test compilation failures
in test-stdio.c:36, test-sys_uio.c:25, test-unistd.c:40.

sys/socket.h
sys/types.h
sys/uio.h
unistd.h

Afaik ithreads support is an optional feature, not sure how distros out
