One other thing could be a significant performance win: if we could use
GNU 'make -j' to run most of the guts of the 'configure' script in
parallel. Waiting for 'configure' to finish is something that slows me
down a lot; often times 'configure' takes longer than the subsequent
'make', simply because 'configure' is inherently sequential.
