Have you checked whether these (strange!) configure flags are needed
with the newer version on 'core-updates'?

I have a slight preference for not passing #:make-flags etc at all in
the normal context.  E.g.

,@(if (%current-target-system)
      `(#:configure-flags ...)
      '())

...but no strong opinion.
