Which is fine, but how do you pass the source files to the compiler? What 
other options does it need. What about calling the linker.

There is no standard way of doing any of this.

Thus the simplistic, but platform specific, batch file would work (and 
could pass down options saying what platform it was, thus bootstrapping 
the full configure).
