I suppose I want to be able to specify an initial value for CMAINTAINERFLAGS: configure CMAINTAINERFLAGS=--something-special Then our code builds with --something-special, in addition to whatever configure chooses to add, while the generated code builds without my extra flag. I wouldn't hold up your branch for this, trunk doesn't support it either. -- Certified & Supported Apache Subversion Downloads: http://www.wandisco.com/subversion/download
