Comment(by dtakahashi42@…):

 The origin of this problem seems to be a supplemental call of
 {{{configure}}} at {{{src/libs/gnulib}}}, which was introduced at 1.21.

 See {{{Makefile.in:770}}},
 {{{
 $(GNULIBDIRS): FORCE
  ...
         test -f Makefile || $(SHELL) $$srcdir/configure ; \
 <-- here
         $(MAKE) ACLOCAL=: AUTOCONF=: AUTOHEADER=: AUTOMAKE=: $(do) ;; \
         esac
 }}}
 a supplemental configure script is called without any options, therefore,
 it ignores {{{--disable-dependency-tracking}}}, {{{--prefix}}} and so on.

 I think the evaluation of this configure script (with appropriate options)
 at {{{post-configure}}} phase will solve the problem.
