Does autoconf now have the ability to write spec files? If so, that could

Yes - many projects have foo.spec.in
When autoconf is run to generate the configure file, foo.spec is
generated - thus you can have version information etc. inside the spec
file that does not need to be maintained by the developer (ie use
@VERSION@ for the Version header info)
