Why that in a release?

Besides this, you can override any variable defined in config.mk
using make in this way:
make <var1>=<value> <var2>=<value>
So I really see no need for using the ?= operator (dunno how
portable it is btw. The Makefile's work out of the box
with GNU and BSD make and are still quite readable
(compared to that stupid junk called automake).
