to set one of these environment variables (like CFLAGS, CPPFLAGS, etc...) that are passed to configure to contain
arguments with spaces (and quoted so configure does not try to interpret them)? I'm sure there is an arcane escape
sequence I am missing. Without some work-around, it seems like you can only assign values to flags that do not contain
any spaces.
You can try something like this:
CPPFLAGS="-I/hdrs1 -I/hdrs2"; export CPPFLAGS
in your function hook_preconfigure.
So it would look something like:
function hook_preconfigure {
CPPFLAGS="-I/hdrs1 -I/hdrs2"; export CPPFLAGS
}
