As an example, fedora has /usr/share/config.site in the autoconf package. This one is smart and is skipped in case of cross compilation, but just in case, I second Xi Ruoyao's proposal. Or even to have CONFIG_SITE=$LFS/usr/share/config.site We might then create a config.site for our own use, for example with prefix=/usr sysconfdir=/etc localestatedir=/var sharedstatedir=/var That would prevent the need to have those in the configure commands...
