Meh, it would be hard to believe this is prefered way... at least because there
are default options like --prefix=/usr in %configure.

Maybe.

Also I'd like to se the %configure macro more "modularized", because it does too
much ATM and as you said, %configure is not for everybody.  So one could call
something like:

    %configure_libtool_hacks
    %configure_fix_gnuconfig

.. only when there are reasons to not call %configure directly.
