Uck; this is complicated. The majority of top-level args are irrelevant to the contrib packages, but all the standard AC flags (e.g., --libdir) certainly can be relevant.

VT guys -- can you look into this?

Building against recent heads (r18643) it appears that libdir (as set

not propagated to ompi-trunk/contrib/vt/vt.

ompi/contrib/vt/configure.m4 is responsible for this.  It seems only
selected arguments from the top-level configure are propagated.  This
looks unfortunate to me, as there are many arguments the user may change
(see configure --help).

Feature or bug?

Somebody else will have to answer that.  FWIW, I'd regard it as a bug.

Cheers,
Ralf
