Comment:
We have to strike a balance between how much to make into configure
options, and how much to leave as `build.mk` settings. Currently we leave
most things in `build.mk`, because the danger is that when we start
putting things into `configure` it's hard to know when to stop, and then
we have two ways to configure lots of things, and a lot of extra m4 code
to go wrong. Also, `build.mk` is persistent, whereas configure options
have to be specified every time you run configure.
So I tend the to view that we shouldn't do this. What do others think?
