Well, you will have to discuss this with the i2c-tools maintainer, he
might have some preference. (Though I'm sure his preference will be to
keep his non-working hand-written Makefile, but I'd be happy to be
proven wrong on this).

Obvious choices are autotools or CMake. meson is becoming popular too.
At least doing an autotools based build system should be relatively
easy.

Best regards,

Thomas
