Comment (by jdemeyer):

 I disagree with `./sage -f configure` since I absolutely don't want
 `configure` to act like a spkg. I prefer `configure` to have as few
 dependencies as possible. I much prefer to not depend on `sage-spkg` (and
 preferably also not on `build/install`, but that's harder for now).

 Also, what was wrong with bootstrapping from the top-level `Makefile`?
 Doesn't the `missing` script work properly? I like the fact that
 `configure` gets regenerated automatically when I edit `configure.ac`.
