for autoconf based Makefiles: 'inherit autoconf'
for scons based things: 'inherit scons'
for distutils based things: 'inherit distutils'
for qmake based things: 'inherit qmake'

So you can package distutils based applications like autoconf based
ones just adding inherit distutils in your bitbake file.
