Almost right. However, try not to invent something new. Please just
use the autoconf/automake behaviour, which follows mostly the convention
that Linux and Git git have set.
http://www.gnu.org/s/hello/manual/automake/Options.html
To summarize
the user of the package may influence the verbosity at configure run
time as well as at make run time:
* Passing --enable-silent-rules to configure will cause build rules to
be less verbose; the option --disable-silent-rules is the default and
will cause normal verbose output.
[we could change this default]
* At make run time, the default chosen at configure time may be
overridden: make V=1 will produce verbose output, make V=0 less
verbose output.
