  Well ... I should not be the one giving the direction here, I guess
Java people are far more used to build with ant than auto* . This can
probably provide portability to Windows for free too (assuming we
can interface with mingw build, which would be nice to test and fix
if needed at some point).
  Let's say I'm surprized but in retrospect this is normal :-)
