The GUI isn't going nonresponsive anymore but configuration time is still
around 4:00 using the nightly release (2.7-20080406).

Perhaps something is just weird with my machine.  I'm not doing anything
special here, just your typical source and build dir rooted somewhere on the
C:\.  There is a MESSAGE() call about me missing a library that's required,
I hit OK at the prompt and it churns. Eventually it pops up a large error
dialog with all of the targets that need the missing library.

Would someone mind doing a quick svn checkout and comparing configuration
times with me?
