Well you just need to run configure once, when you setup the building 
tree!!

You certainly don't know what you are doing. The "make" command will 
not track your compilation flags! You don't know what objects where 
compiled using some CFLAGS if you just change them on the fly!! You 
would need to "make clean" before changing the CFLAGS!!

How long does a "make clean && make" takes in this huge project of 
yours? Probably you could save lots of time if you had two different 
build trees!!
