Comment:

 I'm a bit concerned about the possibility to build different tarballs
 based on configure switches, so I think we should really focus on why it
 is needed to run configure at all, for the purpose of creating the
 tarball.

 I _think_ (but should be checked) it is about creating the documentation,
 so to include it in the tarball, is this the case ?

 To be honest I'm not even sure we should be doing this, rather than simply
 run ./autogen.sh and be done.

 Comments from other packagers ?
