You've brought up two different issues. For CFLAGS, I agree it could be
improved. Not sure what's the best way is, but the main thing is to let
CFLAGS be a user setting, following the coding standard. There could be
an option to enable or disable the maintainer's (i.e. my) choice of
additional warning flags.

The libdir issue is a different thing. The automatic hack only affects
the *default* libdir, and is already overridable with the standard
option --libdir=... In that case, I see little point in a new special
option to disable the current behavior. What might make sense, if you
convince me that the automatic selection really is an inappropriate
default, is to enable it explicitly by using --libdir=auto.

And I'd still like to know if the there's been any related multiarch
improvements in autoconf's default behavior recently.
