This did the trick.  However, to bombproof it a little:

make rmconfig -DWITH_OPTION ... target

Once you do this you need to always put the rmconfig target in the make 
command.

This is exactly what I wanted.

I have been looking at tinderbox in more detail and it appears to be
a better solution.   I am planning to migrate to tinderbox in the near 
future.
