This is in the automake stage, not ./configure.  I don't see how GL_MMX
and such would be related.  Oh, and this is in the released tarball,
btw, if things have changed since then.

I think the automake folks say you're supposed to distribute the
Makefile.ins and configure script (not Makefiles, though).  Go ahead and
generate them on linux like you normally would.  If FreeBSD ports can't
use them (often the case because of various requirements of the ports
system), we just patch/regenerate them as necessary.  It still makes
life much easier for the average user downloading the software.
