This will be a great first use of kfwdev.  As posted there:

This is exactly the design.  The configuration used to build the 
sources is part of the sources.

If bkw.pl were to use the command line config file for the build, 
there wouldn’t be any point in ever trying to use the config in the 
sources.  The command line config file would prevail and we’d be back 
to where we were two weeks ago.

It sounds like more control over config files is needed.  What about 
two modes?  One is the current design and implementation – use the 
command-line-specified config file to locate the sources and the 
config in the sources to drive the build.  Two is to always use the 
command-line-specified config file.
