I just ran it and everything it generates seems to be produced by
something in configure.ac, as I expected.

Surely the problem then is that configure.ac has too much useless
stuff in it ?  For example why are we checking for things like alarm
and atexit and everything from <string.h>, which are going to exist
everywhere ?
