Is there any way for the main configure, as generated by autoconf, to
automatically override defaults for options in the one invoked with
AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS()? Or can it only be done by the user manually
entering the option? I'd like the main configure run with no options
to override the default of a setting that only exists in the other
one, but I can't see how to do it.
$ac_configure_args seems to be the best available solution, although
it's an undocumented autoconf internal.
Some previous mailing list messages on it (no, the hypothetical macro
never materialised):

Here is another discussion providing a patch:
