In my view 64a4fbfbf, an unposted patch against _configure is wrong.

Suffix auto-removal is for cases where either a different suffix or no
suffix at all might be valid. If you do, ./configure CFLAGS you get:

  checking build system type... Invalid configuration 'CFLAGS': machine 'CFLAGS-unknown' not recognized

Leaving it at CFLAGS= might be intended to override a default CFLAGS
with an empty one. Not using compadd -q was very much intended.
