hints.m4
Hmmm... right now, if CFLAGS (et.al.) set, the hints.m4 stuff is
*not* used (they are only set if these env vars are null)...
I'm thinking now that that's not the right thing. These
should be set (added) no matter what.
The reason for the current behavior is so that people can "overrule"
the settings in hints by forcing CFLAGS, LIBS, etc... on the
command line. I still think we need that somehow.

very minor point: there is a mixture of APR_ADDTO and APR_SETIFNULL,
hopefully (for some platforms at least) for good reason

edit hints.m4 perhaps?
edit config_vars.mk after configure*?
*not so simple as there are more places to edit
