The pkgsrc packge for geos is at at 3.9.1, which I think is current, and
is using configure.

I really don't follow your question.  Has there been a formal withdrawal
of the autotools build?  If so, then it follows that it is not supported
and presumably would be removed.  If not, it seems out of the question
to commit something that doesn't work right with it.   And, it would
seem very surprising to withdraw a build system on a stable branch.

Looking, 3.9.1's INSTALL says autotools works.   So committing something
to the 3.9 branch that breaks that seems not ok.

I feel like I must be missing something.
