I have no objections, but why do we want to get rid of it?  The reason for
getting rid of configure, was because the configure script is created
different ways on different platforms.  My understanding from talking to
other developers, is that the autoheader doesn't have that issue.  It
generates the same .h.in file everytime, assuming the configure.in script
hasn't changed.

So, I'm -0 for getting rid of it, just because I don't see the point in
not having it.
