We are happy to make any adjustments here.  Our first set of
refactoring here was
aimed at making it more pythonic.  Is this where the concerns are?

Should we error out in configure if the tools and libraries needed to build the
VMs are not there?
Or maybe tolerate these dependencies not being there at configure time and
provide an error later when someone tries to vm-build these VMs?
Just curious which approach we should pursue here.
