This is intended. And why should anybody want to mess the source tree?
Sorry, I meant "running in place" without installing. Currently one has
to set a varriable, it should just work.

Yes, but here again were discussions :(
Which ones?

How? It is easy to do so, but I would like to know, what is the criteria ...
I think this (and some of your later question) is described in the
INSTALL file. If some things are not well explained there, I will
improve the file.

Seems, like it adds -DDEVEL_VERSION to compiler flags, never used it.
It should be on for development versions IMO.

This is make, not cmake.
Some directories (which are independent) will be compiled in parallel.
But they all share all processors.
With automake, each process is the compiling only one file. With
cmake-based makefiles I see several new compilations being started after
the error.

I agree. But we need consensus about what is reasonable.
I would like feedback on what autotools assumptions are not reasonable.
I would propose to make the to tools converge as a first step.

# make -DVERBOSE=1
Thanks. The -D should be omitted actually.
