No decision has been made about that yet. Potential tools tossed around
have been:

auto*
mbuild
nant
make

Personally, I am uncomfortable with nant given its difficulty to
install/depend on in linux right now, mbuild is relatively immature (and
no one has it), auto* and make are just a clusterfuck. Sigh :)

So, basically, no plans, we aren't pleased with the current situation
now either, but we have no idea which way to go.
