More smoke questions

1.  Once I start a smoke running, is it safe to overwrite files in the 
source directory? (cdir in the config file).

2.  How do I set flags that I would normally pass to Configure, e.g. 
compiler flags.

I have four Solaris boxes running 2.6, 2.7, 2.8 & 2.9, all patched up and 
ready to go.  I also have a local 'p4 sync'd copy of the 5.6.x, 5.8.x and 
5.10.x branches from the perl repository and I'm in the process of writing a 
script to drive all four machines.  I'm intending that the script will sync 
with the repository a couple of times a day, and automatically kick off 
smokes on machines as they become idle.  Hopefully once it is running I 
won't have to touch it.
