I'm not quite sure what you are asking for. 'config.status --recheck' reruns configure using the parameters that you originally passed. And if you find yourself constantly passing the same set of parameters to multiple configure scripts, then consider writing a config.site file: http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#Site-Defaults - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
