115 has presumably a good mach support, looks like configure scripts hasn't been kept up to date on par with mach. We should rewrite the ebuild to use mach instead of autotools and see if the end-result is compatible. 

mach can also be used to run tests, but I'm not sure yet how to exclude broken tests with it.
