I think I now understand what you meant in
an earlier message: You mentioned that the

I am under the impression that autoconf isn't
really used, it just pretends to do so.
But as always I may be wrong.

nobody has.

"
See https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/pull/562
and the related threads on here a few weeks back.

We patiently waiting for Eliot to give his blessing :)
