I want configure to detect which X is used by automatically :-)

Well, the point that I want NOT to use GNU autoconf is "Writing
appropriate configure.in and/or related stuff (to make configure
configure script) is difficult than writing appropriate Imakefile". I
want NOT to force all developer who want to contribute/write a module
for fvwm.

Though configure script is maybe flexible and usable, why only a few
application (except the GNU product) uses GNU autoconf for generating ?
I think many developer want NOT to use GNU autoconf because of difficulty...
