Description

currently the dune build system is extremely verbose. personally i find that such verbosity is a hinderance for spotting important output such as valid warnings.

since automake 1.11, automake supports silent builds, see http://www.flameeyes.eu/autotools-mythbuster/automake/silent.html

the attached patches adds this to the dune core modules, with silent builds as the default. if this is too much, my secondary request would be to carry the configure.ac lines (without passing([yes]) so those who want it can do make V=0 without keeping local changes
