Previously, 'configure' and its assorted machinery lived in the 'unix' subdir, because that seemed like a clean place to keep it given that all the other per-platform Makefiles live in their platform directories. However, this never sat all that happily with autotools, and even less so now that it likes to have object file pathnames parallel source file pathnames: if you have Makefile.am refer to source files outside its subdir as "../terminal.c" and enable subdir-objects then any out-of-tree build calls the corresponding object file "../terminal.o" and so your build products mostly end up at the directory above your build dir! And as of autotools 1.14 my previous compensatory bodge of prefixing every source file path in Makefile.am with "$(srcdir)" has stopped working too. So I'm giving in to necessity, and changing policy by moving the configure machinery up to the top level of the source tree where autotools will be less confused by it. This should not be taken as any indication of the primacy of the Unix port, only of the recalcitrance of autotools. Whereas before we had a trivial script called 'configure' at the top level that invoked unix/configure to effectively do an 'out-of-tree build' (for make purposes) at the top level of the source tree, we now have a similar script in unix/configure. So this _should_ make very little difference: people who were previously running configure from the top level should still be able to, and likewise people who were running it from the unix subdir.
