Since the forest consolidation, multiple "paper-cut" issues have appeared.

This patch will deal with the following issues:
* Changes in autoconf files will no longer cause make to require a 
reconfigure.
* "make reconfigure" was broken when closed sources were present
* The new relationship between open and closed code allows for a more 
streamlined support for custom extensions in the open code.
