I agree that this configure script looks auto generated but IMHO it can
be considered machine readable and editable with some effort.  I could
imagine that it is hard to edit for your cross-building effort.
However, this is the first time a FTBFS bug is filed for the lack of
some configure.ac file.  Am I missing something our should this be
discussed on debian-devel list first since this might end up in a MBF.

Kind regards
   Andreas.
