nitpick: the phases would gain in readability if indented more left, as
is more common. To force regenerating the build scripts with the
gnu-build-system, you can simply delete the existing 'configure' file
after 'unpack.

Please do not use labels anymore. A simple (list autoconf automake
libtool) (ordered) will do.

Otherwise, it looks fine :-).
