You can leave this undefined if the source doesn't use configure or has a
normal config script, otherwise you can put your own commands here or use
"\texttt{\$(call Build/Configure/Default,\textit{<first list of arguments, second list>})}" as above to
pass in additional arguments for a standard configure script. The first list of arguments will be passed to the configure script like that: $--arg 1$ $--arg 2$. The second list contains arguments that should be defined before running the configure script such as autoconf or compiler specific variables.

To make it easier to modify the configure command line, you can either extend or completely override the following variables:
\begin{itemize}
\item \texttt{CONFIGURE\_ARGS} \\
Contains all command line arguments (format: \texttt{--arg 1} \texttt{--arg 2})
\item \texttt{CONFIGURE\_VARS} \\
Contains all environment variables that are passed to ./configure (format: \texttt{NAME="value"})
