The parameter are stored in mangled format in the top of config.status.

$ head /obj/h-pkinit/config.log  | grep /configure
  $ /Users/lha/src/heimdal/configure --enable-pk-init --without-krb4 CC=ccache cc -g

And when you grow tired of waiting on autoreconf to complete just to modify
on Makefile.am, you just run automake lib/foo/Makefile in the source tree
and type "make Makefile" in the object tree. This way you only rebuild the
files needed.

And, for you own sanity, use obj-tree, this way you can just blow them away
then you want a clean rebuild.
