[zeromq-dev] Reconfigure libzmq compile cycle

[Kenneth Adam Miller]

Aww, that makes me sad... so I ran configure, but I would prefer not to
have to leave all of my flags on the command line specifically to
./configure... And editing a *generated *makefile is out of the question,
because later it will be regenerated, and I'm not doing any re-editing.

Well, I can compile the way I need to, but I'm not happy with the situation
because it's ugly.
