Like Greg mentioned, I did a rework of the Makefile structure/source
tree. This, however, doesn't use the m4/autoconf stuff. I thought about
using it but found it pretty much overkill for our needs since most of
the supported platforms in nanogui use cross-compiling (linuxCE people
with mips, RTEMS people, us here with ARM, ...) Usually this kind of
mechanism (autoconf) is used to get the configuration of the host it is
run on, not the target platform ... Maybe I'm wrong, but I don't think
the autoconf tools suite is designed to support cross-compiling... What
I did is a configuration mechanism a la linux kernel ...
