Sorry, but I lack the time for that right now.  I'll certainly help interested
maintainers to proceed to such more gradual conversion, once they're ready to
take the burden for it, but for the time being I'm just interested in verifying
that those packages actually work correctly and quickly enough with Automake-NG
(doing so has already proven useful to avoid bugs and performance regressions).
