autoconfiscate To set up or modify a source-code
distribution so that it configures and builds using
the GNU project's autoconf/automake/libtools suite. Among open-source
hackers, a mere running binary of a program is not considered a full
release; what's interesting is a source tree that can be built into
binaries using standard tools. Since the mid-1990s, autoconf and friends
been the standard way to adapt a distribution for portability so that it
can be built on multiple operating systems without change.
