Lets put it this way, if I download libzend (separately), can I generate
the configure file as easily as I could earlier (by simply running
autoconf) or not? That's what I meant when I said the buildconf rules for
libzend belong in libzend... If your changes did not affect the ease of
generating configure for libzend, then never mind.
