menuconfig is useful when you have many build-time options and not many
automatic configurations. The only program I  know of that uses a
similar system besids the linux kernel is busybox.

Autoconf can easily handle the amount of build-time configurability
asterisk requires. It also handles the required  tests better than make.

That said, if  you have something working, and it works well, I  won't 
mind :-)
