Changing the default does improve the speed of configure because configure no longer needs to execute GCC to figure out where the build files are. Yes the time saved is small but time is expensive so any saving is a big deal, especially with such a small change.
I would argue that the difference you are talking about is less than 5 seconds. Which in a build like FFmpeg or similar, is statistically 0. So perhaps you have some data to show a non-trivial amount of time saved that would make this worth it? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
