Thanks for debugging and solving that problem!

The current way of configure writing a file for setting environments variables is too fragile. As can be seen in your example if configure is run in an environment that is already "contaminated" with such env vars then unnecessary causes of troubles exist.

IMHO build and config settings should be done via e.g. Makefile.config that should be created by configure. This config result should then be included by the other Makefiles.

So if in doubt better use a fresh shell before running configure.
