>Description:
Showing up with increasing frequency is a check for maximum command-line
length in GNU configure. Depending on the machine, I've seen this take anywhere
from 20 secs to about 1.5 minutes. This check is unnecessary, as the maximum
command-line length has been empirically determined to be 16384 across the
board.
This sets a variable in CONFIGURE_ENV that passes this value explicitly. The
only drawback would be if any machine has a different length, but I've not
yet seen that to be the case anywhere.
