It is not required to run configure.

The file is generated using awk, so that's not the case either.

The generated file in this case has no system dependencies, so I guess
I misunderstood this as being standard glibc practice.  I also
misremembered some stuff I had implemented in the past
(posix-conf-vars for example) as writing into the source directory
instead of the build directory.  I'll fix up Martin's patch to switch
back to generating in $build_dir/nptl/.
