[Typo3-dev] TYPO3core autotools integration and doxygen

Hi,

I've started to setup a configuration for autoconf so that typo3 can be 
distributed and installed like several other oss projects.

Just
./configure
make
make install

The answers to the question if this makes sense are not unique. As I 
like standards and the autotools are a standard on any GNU-Systems (also 
available for Windows) I think it makes sense.

In the way of using autoconf/Makefiles it's also possible to integrate 
several steps in the build process. One common task is to generate the 
output formats of the documentation. So I have integrated a Doxygen task 
for generating an API-Overview.

Another common step is the (or should be) the easy way of building 
typo3-packages (deb,rpm) for several distributions as the most work 
could be done by autoconf/Makefiles.

One last point.
As this is early work in progress I didn't send any patches to Kasper 
yet. You can have an overview by looking into my private gnuarch 
repository at 
http://www.icecrash.com/cgi-bin/archzoom.cgi/wilhelm@icecrash.com--2005-typo3?expand

Also there is no garantie that this will be merged into the TYPO3core 
repository.

Use it at your own risk.

Greets Sven

Ps: Any feedback welcome.
