Short rude answer: RTFM.


Long nice answer:

Look in the COMPILE document at the root of the source tree.

There are few "configure" option:

--enable-debug: build and install a debug-enabled binary

--disable-fastalloc: disable customized allocator, useful for memory
debugging (e.g. valgrind).

--help: learn about the existence of the other options.
