Ah, I see. So I've now added a patch into that graphite module to sync
the configure.ac logic into configure.

Well, we do occasionally patch those "external" modules, but try to
avoid it. The ideal place to send patches to graphite would be to the
upstream graphite project and poke them to release a new update at some
stage and then just upgrade to the latest graphite.

We're behind in quite a few modules from the leading edge, we should get
up to date in more of them, e.g. hunspell, icu, hyphen, etc. and try and
reduce the custom patching.
