True, that could be done.  However, CVS HEAD does not have this
construction any more anyway, and this is not strictly a bug, so
I'm not inclined to change branch-1-5 here.

It's not possible to generally add --no-reexec to sub-configure scripts,
because if they don't use libtool, they will barf over the unrecognized
option.

Cheers,
