Can I use autoconf native on NT or OpenVMS or other non-unix like
platforms? No.

What do I gain by using autoconf? As far as I can see, the only benefit is
that someone who is familiar with building various open source projects can
just type "./configure" and that seems to be it. Forgive me for being dumb,
I can't write or read autoconf input files. If I'm to do one, I'll have to
copy from someone elses and if anything goes wrong I don't know what the
hell is causing this :-)

Is it really too much to do to read the README file and uncomment 2 lines
in 2 files, as it is now required to build omniORB?
