Does anyone know if RedHat leaves any evidence behind for the compile time
options they use to compile some of the major systems like Samba, Apache, etc?

In particular, what I'm after are the switches used during the ./configure
phase. It appears they don't take the developer suggested defaults for file
locations, etc in many instances. I'm wondering if there is any way to
definitively determine what options are either on or off for any particular
subsystem and what directory paths they set for the various directory variables
by finding some evidence of how they ran their compiles to produce the RPM's.
