Hehe.  To add some on-topicness to this size comparison: how long was
the generated line in the configure script?  Does gnumach exercise
autotools thoroughly and is large in some way(s)?   Can I build it on a
GNU/Linux system without many prerequisites?  If yes and yes, then I'm
interested in adding it to my list of irregularly exercised autotools
regression suite.

Cheers,
Ralf
