That probably isn't what you really want to do.

The most common reason why a build fails is because a -dev package is missing.  
Alternatively, some required component might be present, but located somewhere 
away from the usual search path.

Once either of these situations is resolved, you are going to need to re-run 
the configure script anyway.
