BTW:

I'm doing some research on a new universal buildsystem, which models 
the structure of software instead of the build process. This model
should be able to cope w/ all common languages/paradigms, including 
code-generators (i.e.bison), resource files (i.e. .po, .xpm, ...).

The information feeded into the buildsystem should be abstract enough
to let it do the whole build process (also tracking dependencies
and interfaces, setting up pathes and compiler settings) up to 
customized installing + packaging completely by itself and make 
such misdesigns like autoconf obsolete.

It should even go further than current build tools and model abstract
and build-specific things separately, for example the concept of
modules vs. shared libraries: an module can be built into the main
binary, into some library or completely left out. (have a look at apache)

Since it organizes the whole project into a tree structure, I've 
called it "treebuild".

Probably someone here's interested in it.
