It's not. All the actual makefiles in the "config" sub tree are 
hand-written, except for the source file lists they import from the 
generated src/makefile.all and src/makefile.awc.  The Makefile.am in 
there is just for organizing the tarball.

There's a case to be made that a CMake setup could replace a large part 
of those, particularly mingw, cygwin, msvc.  Among other things, that 
could reduce the extra work of maintaining them all.

I have a CMake script here that does most of what config/cygwin and 
config/msvc achieve.  I haven't yet tried to add the extra work as done 
by config/mingw: no TeX, no Japanese docs, etc.
