Hmm. It should be. I do my configury in the winsup directory, though, so
I don't get all of the CC overrides from the top level. I think setting
CFLAGS should still be enough, though.

Yep. I try to do the same thing with gcc when I am working on gcc and
gas when I'm working on gas, etc. You run the risk of not correctly
rebuilding sibling libraries and such after a CVS update though, of
course.
