I am sure Ralf can provide many more details but the simple answer is
that
between 4.0 and now, RTEMS has moved to automake and greater compliance
with GNU conventions.  In 4.0, there was a single configure script at
the
top of the tree.  Now RTEMS is configured more like other GNU tools --
as
a collection of configurable entities.  BSPs now have their own
configure
script.

I highly recommend you look at the Makefile.am's, configure.in, of a
similar
BSP.  You might even want to consider running "bootstrap -c" from the
top
of the tree and looking at what is left.  bootstrap generates/removes
all
automatically generated files.  You will need automake and autoconf
installed
to do this.
