well, why "-i". Shouldn't it _ideally_ be just "autoreconf"?

Well, such an extensible framework might work.
But IMHO, the best comfort/complexity ratio of all such meta-autoconf
tools provides Good Old Shell. IOW a few lines of shell in a
customized ./bootstrap is worth a thisand of intelligent perl
bootstrappers.
(But, of course, I'm not speaking on behalf of the whole Autoconf team.)
Have a nice day,
