Due to some possibility of cached configure output, I always run make
distclean first and start over.  Back in the day of 386-dx40s when
running ./configure took 30 minutes and building postgresql took
another 1.5 hours, I would work harder to avoid doing that, but
nowadays, given how fast a clean build can run, it's no great loss.

I keep a copy of all the switches I use in a file called
configure.local or something like that that I can put into svn and
check out when I need to build an exact copy.  On the rare occasions a
packaged pgsql isn't good enough.
