   If all we cared about was portability to GNU systems we could do away
   with 99% of autotools and gnulib; basically everything except
   portability between older and newer versions of glibc-based systems.

That would be a good thing in my opinion.


In either case, supporting non-GNU systems is not and has never been a
priority of the GNU project.  It is well documented, specifically
under (maintain) Platforms.
