Instead of using the --disable-verbose-compile hack, let's
use the standard option --enable-silent-rules (or 'make V=0' directly)
available with autoconf 1.11 and higher.
This is enabled in autoconf by using 'silent-rules' in AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE.
The verbosity of compilation is reduced in a similar manner as using
the --disable-verbose-compile option, so we can remove all that ugly
hackery.
This patch adds the --disable-verbose-compile switch to the
configure script.
When this option is used it reduces the verbosity of compilation
messages to the essential. However compiler warnings are not affected
and thus gain visibility by not standing in the middle of a storm
of other messages.
In summary, the compilation messages are reduced to a stream of
CC array.o
CC bagtree.o
CC configuration.o
CC connection.o
CC data.o
[...]
instead of a mind-boggling flux of

- Fixed WPrefs path in the installed WMState (changed after recent WPrefs
installation path changes)
- Fixed wmaker.inst (apparently some very noisy individual was unable to get
right his 10 line patch to rename a path)
