New description:
I'd like to run '''./autogen.sh and'''(unsupported by autostuff?) and
'''./configure''' scripts from locations other, than source tree.
It is very convinient to run builds for various
architectures/configurations against one actual source.
usage example:
$ cd /tmp
$ git clone path-to-mc
$ ./autogen.sh
$ chmod -R u-w mc/ # freeze sources (just for tests)

branch:208_out_of_tree_build (based on mc-4.6)
changeset:e3a3890a3a82500bf3e6b61d28a00f3a5e229f66
# let's craft 'mc-build'
# (and mc-build-{arm, '''x86_64''', i386, ppc,
mingw32}-{slang, '''charset''', glib{1,2}} in real world)
# and build sources there:
$ mkdir mc-build
$ cd mc-build
$ ./configure --prefix=/tmp/mc-test/
$ make
$ make install
or at least to generate '''./configure''' in '''/tmp/mc''' tree, but to be
able t run it from other locations to have source tree untouched
