I'm not so sure about that. I would rather see the configure tests running through, but like the idea to have -Werror=implicit-function-declaration set for the actual make stage.
There is no practical way of changing CFLAGS between the configure and make stages.
It's more important that configure tests run to check for existence of stuff, and not being able to configure is a really annoying problem.
configure would still run, but poorly written tests could return "no" when the correct answer is "yes".
