I've got the following patch to tell Configure that if you specify man
page extensions (1p, 3pm), the script should listen and not override
your values. This allows me to do a complete Configure without asking
questions:
./Configure -de -D prefix=/usr -D perladmin='none' -D man1ext=1p \
-D man3dir='/usr/man/man3' -D man3ext=3pm -D ccflags='-I/usr/include/db' \
-D sitelib='/usr/local/lib/site_perl' -D optimize='-O2 -fomit-frame-pointer'

This makes things much easier.
