You mean, the top level configure, or the user?

In fact, you don't give enough hints on your needs for us to really
understand if the current Autoconf is enough, or if more is needed.
Could you be more specific?
In the meanwhile, looking at the handling of ac_configure_args should
give you some workaround. But maybe your needs will end with a new
param to AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS to pass additional flags.
