Thanks for the NTP tip. I followed their example and it's basically doing as I'd like. The only problem with their solution is that ./configure --help has: --enable-local-libopts --disable-libopts-install which are now basically the defaults. For now I can just release note it, but a more elegant solution would be appreciated.
