I've hacked around a bit...
not quite done yet, the spell doesn't quite work yet.

I've changed BUILD a bit.
I'm not quite sure what to do with the configure.sh in net-tools,
but the best usage I can think of for it is as a pattern to /bin/shred.
At least whoever tries to get my data will go crazy before they get it.

But, CONFIGURE should work now, and I've changed BUILD to not
use configure.sh. The spell doesn't quite work yet, but I'm not sure if
I'll have any more time to work on it the next days.
Also, the rest is probably better done by a grimoire wizard
(as opposed to me, I can just bash-script like a muthaphukka but don't
write spells ;-) )

Well, I hope I could help a bit,
So Far,
  Karsten "BearPerson" Behrmann

p.s.: I've generated a new set of files in options/, using the defaults
and descriptions in the config.in file, because I had to make the option
name match the name of the flag in config.in. If you changed any of the
descriptions, you may want to grab your changes from your current
workspace or from p4 review mails.

p.p.s.: I used config_set_option, which isn't in libapi. I hope that's
okay.
