I disagree with you on this since there are a lot of things that the
automated makefiles can do for you. Checking for compiler and linker
options is really only a minor feature. 

Anyway, you should at least check for automake 1.10 in autogen.sh then
to avoid people running into problems they can't easily deal with.
