No. This should probably be reverted. Kevin had that there initially, but
the problem is that libtool can be confused on a previous install when it
is compiling to that same location. This is why there is the
'implicit-install-check'. Furthermore, this'll only get used when there is
no apr and apr-util subdirs - which we always include in our release
tarballs. So, the value to our naïve end users is minimal.

The user should just explicitly pass the --with-apr and --with-apr-util
flags - the risk of corruption is way too high here. -- justin
