This merges the branch containing the revamped build system based around converting autogen from a bash script to a Perl program. Jeff has provided emails explaining the features contained in the change.
Please note that configure requirements on components HAVE CHANGED. For example. a configure.params file is no longer required in each component directory. See Jeff's emails for an explanation.

This component proxies notification messages up to the HNP. This
component runs in both the HNP and non-HNP processes for ease of
selection (e.g., so you can "--mca notifier hnp" (vs. "--mca
notifier hnp,non_hnp"). It auto-detects where it is running and
does the Right Thing -- if it's in the HNP process, it sets up to
receive incoming proxied messages. If it's not in the HNP, then it
proxies all messages to the HNP.
