Thoughts? Seems like a rare case where someone would want to re-visit (in this manner) options they have already set. That said, it may come in handy. I think "config-recursive-unconditional" would be a better name as it fits better with the "config-recursive" target. Of course, this is just a bikeshed argument so I don't care what it ends up being called. ;) -- WXS
