My current Autoconf work does that.  It builds noweb at configure time
if none of the noweb utility is found.  It currently does that for the build
platform; it will do it for the target platform if necessary.

|   *) if noweb is installed check to see if the filter already exists

I can do this if I'm given sufficient detail of how to detect the
problem and where the filter could possibly reside.
