All build systems have their pros and cons. The most important feature
of autotools is that it was designed to work only with the lowest
possible denominator standard utilities. Because of that, the package
that uses autotools can be installed on almost any machine that offers C
compiler but drawback is their complexity. So I'd say, if you do not
feel yourself uncomfortable with autotools do not replace them with
something else.
Of course, IMO, configure.in should be polished a bit ;) but that is
another problem that does not require build system change...
