I was too naive: glimpsing the environment section of a few man pages was not good enough.
For what it's worth, the development version no longer uses automake. But it still uses autoconf (which I like), which also depends on perl these days.
Good ridance of automake. Autoconf now pulls perl5?! Kludge on kludge on more kludge... nervously tiring.
BTW, I saw you switched to gitlab.com for the git repository... unfortunately, it seems gitlab switched to their proprietary edition for gitlab.com...
