>From quick look:
1. Quagmire tries to replace autoconf and libtools too,
Antimake is strictly build tool. It leaves system
detection to autoconf and shared libs to libtool.
2. Despite that, Quagmire seems to depend autoconf for
initial setup. Antimake has defaults for anything
and can operate standalone.
This means that Antimake is also usable also for small
or even throwaway test projects, which Automake or
Quagmire isn't.
3. Antimake is single file, you can simply add it into your source
tree and never worry about incompatibility with newer versions.
As it does not contain any system-specific knowledge, the need
to upgrade should be small also, if the features used in project
are working well.
