Yes, there is... Just skip the "configure" part, use an arch.make supplied by you and type "make". It will run a few configure's for the modules of siesta, which them selves have make files, and start building everything. If you are too lost about arch.make's, there are plenty of them flying around on the list archives and of course, on the Src/Sys directory, with many flavors of compilers and math libraries - but you will most certainly have to adjust:
1) the paths for the libraries (especially blacs and scalapack, which have to be compiled individually) 2) the paths for the mpi stuff, if your system has some particular/weird configuration. Now I have realized one thing... are you trying to customize an arch.make and *after* customizing it typing ../../Src/configure ? I've never done it myself but I'd guess configure would overwrite whatever you put in the arch.make with its own guesses, hence no matter what you put in configure would generate complaints.
