I wasn't really proposing anything. But if I had to, in rough order of
preference: meson, gnu make, portable make subset.

Ftr the issue wasn't about autotools or the release tools. There's
hacks and workarounds in xorg-server which should really be sorted.
If's fine that If you don't have the patience/time/knowledge to fix
them but for once autotools isn't the one to blame here ;-)

meson seems to be the current favourite, see daniels' efforts for weston:
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2016-November/031984.html
and some more follow-up here
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2016-December/032033.html

I tried it on libinput - it works nicely and feels a lot 'cleaner', if you
want an unscientific measurement on top of daniels' benchmarks.
https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/wayland-devel/2016-December/032117.html

Not sure how well it'd go for something as crazy as the server build system
but it certainly warrants having a look at.

Cheers,
   Peter

What do you propose instead of autotools?  I agree that it is utter garbage, 
and I dislike the license ... but I certainly don't like any of the 
alternatives either.  CMake, JAM, and the rest are pretty much all crap for one 
reason or another.  And hopefully you agree that it's at least leagues better 
than imake!  If there was a good alternative, I'd be happy to help with 
transitioning us away from autotools, but I just don't see any good option.

As several people have noticed, this tarballs is missing some of
the standard buildsystem bits, such that you need to run autoreconf
before ./configure. This is partly my fault for driving the release
script incorrectly, and mostly autotools' fault for being sheer
garbage. (Seriously, dear gnu project, please sunset autotools. It is a
net loss to humanity at this point.)
