Gert already noted this, but questions about building, compiling, or
coding OpenVPN tend to get the most attention in the openvpn-devel mailing
list. I'd recommend directing follow-ups to this thread there.

This is a variable the person building will set to pass special options to
the ./configure script for the OpenVPN-GUI project specifically. Hence it
is "EXTRA" config.

You're quite right the build script doesn't set this, because it is
normally completely unnecessary; a look at the ./configure --help output
for the GUI sources shows it doesn't have any notable optional features
today; this may change in the future. It's also possible someone might
want to set --disable-dependency-tracking, for example; using this env-var
is where someone would do it "just for the GUI" code. This is settable on
the command line, or in the build.vars file.

Hopefully this clears up your confusion; happily ignore this if you don't
need it yourself. A quick example of possible usage could be:

EXTRA_OPENVPN_GUI_CONFIG="--disable-dependency-tracking" ./generic/build
