Can I get you to reconsider that?

Originally, I planed to keep the utility separate, but then I got
comments from Mauro ( https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/4/24/457 ) explaining
that hard sdl dependency is not acceptable etc, and how I should do
automake.

So I had a lot of fun with automake integration, and generally doing
things right.

So getting "we all ready have too many utilities" _now_ is quite an
unwelcome surprise.
