So are we coming back to the idea of (re)adding an %GNUconfigure or
%autoreconfigure macro that regenerates the autofoo *and* runs
configure?

RPM dropped %GNUconfigure back in 2016[1] because the macro had been
broken for years, nobody used it, and there was no interest in making
Autotools builds always regenerate their scripts in Fedora or openSUSE
like other distros do.

I think a good chunk of this pain could have been avoided if we always
mandated the autotools scripts need to be regenerated like PLD and
Debian both do.
