Ok. I'll see if Peter applies the patch and makes the change himself
before resending 13 patches :-)

I found it quite redundant, and in fact I believe it is now a bit
useless even for autotools and cmake packages. It used to be useful at
the time we had old-style packages that were not yet converted. But
nowadays, it is quite clear that if the package infrastructure exists
and matches the build system of a given package, then it must be used.

Thanks a lot for the review!
