Matthias meant to say that autotools don't check for a defined
"environment" (like "Foobuntu 10.4 32-bit"), instead it checks for
various features it uses. This is not a suggestion to use autotools
but rather a suggestion that if you for example wanted to talk to the
session manager, check which of the known session managers is on DBus
rather than checking if the desktop is running KDE4 or GNOME3.
