If you explicitly specify where to find ./configure --x-libraries=FOO --x-includes=BAR then the build process will use that, and the configuration report will report what you have chosen. I don't know, off the top of my head, whether it's possible to extract the information that you want. It might be the case that Emacs just lets compiler try to find the header files and libraries by itself. I'd prefer not to muck around with the configuration too much during pretest, but we can look into it after the release.

When I configure GNU Emacs the script has an = unwanted preference of /usr/X11 as default of the X11 installation. On = my system, Mac=A0OS=A0X 10.4.11 (Tiger), this is a non-standard = (non-Apple) installation of a self-compiled X11R7.4 (in Mac OS X 10.5, = Leopard, it is the default; up to Tiger /usr/X11R6 is the default). = Because of reasons I did not find yet any version of GNU Emacs built = from a mix of /usr/X11 plus the usual /usr/X11R6 and /sw trees does not = work, although the X11 I am running uses /usr/X11. So I have to rename = /usr/X11 to /usr/X12, or such, that a useful GNU Emacs update gets = configured.

It once (beginning of October 2008) was the standard to report these details: Where do we find X Windows header files? /usr/X11R6/ include Where do we find X Windows libraries? /usr/X11R6/ lib When I pass --x-includes=/opt/local/include --x-libraries=/opt/local/ lib to configure it at least reports: Where do we find X Windows header files? /opt/local/ include Where do we find X Windows libraries? /opt/local/ lib Thinking a bit further on my problem, it seems to be adequate to state --x-includes=FOO --x-libraries=BAR on a system with more than one X11 installation instead of hoping that my compiler flags will work it out...
