No details written down, no. The basic idea is to use GNU Make to glue together
Autoconf-style snippets, instead of Autoconf's sequentializing them into a shell
script. This would 'configure' run in parallel.
Doing this properly will require telling GNU Make about dependencies among the
snippets, but Gnulib is already keeping track of dependencies, and most of
Emacs's configury is taken from Gnulib so that would give us a head-start in
doing the conversion.
