Could you give details of the exact build failure, rather than just "fails
to build"?

I might wonder if having this configuration mechanism actually makes
sense.
What's the reason here for using this option? Whatever the reason, it
would seem better to me to have makefile targets for building / installing
subsets of the normally built files (so that from a single build tree you
can use one target, then another, without needing any other manual changes
to the build tree), rather than setting global parameters in a
configuration file like this.
