1 10.6 Sharing Defaults
1 =====================
1 
1 If you want to set default values for 'configure' scripts to share, you
1 can create a site shell script called 'config.site' that gives default
1 values for variables like 'CC', 'cache_file', and 'prefix'.  'configure'
1 looks for 'PREFIX/share/config.site' if it exists, then
1 'PREFIX/etc/config.site' if it exists.  Or, you can set the
1 'CONFIG_SITE' environment variable to the location of the site script.
1 A warning: the Bash 'configure' looks for a site script, but not all
1 'configure' scripts do.
