Can you please explain how this interacts with / impacts / undoes
commit 3db75d9c "fix: missing autoconfig.mk from general Makefile"?


I have to admit that I did not really understood the need for commit
3db75d9c, and neither do I in this case, so I think I better ask now
before I completely lose track of what you are doing here, or why.

[None of the systems I work with seems to need ayhting like that.]

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
