Initially built using...

   ./configure '--with-config-file-path=/etc' '--with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs' '--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql' '--enable-track-vars' '--with-zlib=shared,/usr' '--with-xml' '--with-gd=/usr/local/gd' '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' '--with-png-dir=/usr' '--with-xpm-dir=/usr/X11R6' '--with-ttf=/usr' '--with-t1lib=/usr' '--enable-gd-native-tt'

...with a completely fresh snapshot; deleted directory, untared brand new code.  Makes and make installs fine.  <?php phpinfo(); ?> tags reports the configure line verbatim, and shows "JPG Support - enabled" in GD table.

Now.  Recompile.  Removing '--with-jpeg-dir=/usr' from configure line beforehand.  Perform make and make install.

The new settings are not reflected in <?php phpinfo(); ?>.  The settings continue say JPEG support enabled.

Points:
- This failure occurrs in both directions.  Adding or deleting --with-jpeg-dir setting.
- This is not isolated to --with-jpeg-dir, but all flags as far as I can see.
- "make clean", "make distclean", "rm config.cache" before making, do not help.

Forgive me if this is stupid question, but did you do

'# make install'

and 

'# /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl stop; # /usr/local/apache/bin/apachectl start'

??

Yes.  Make install and an Apache restart was done each time.

Hmm..question is, did you do it like I described?
Doing 'apachectl restart' does not work.

And about deleting config.cache..you should delete 
it before configure, not before make.

Yes.  Stop first, then start, I wondered about that.  Always noticed that in the error_log a restart doesn't work, so changed to the stop/start method.

Yes.  I believe I deleted config.cache before ./configure.  Rerunning entire sequence to make sure.

Results:
  # fresh tarball
  ./configure         # with flags, as above
  make
  make install
  apachectl stop      # verified in ps
  apachectl start     # verified in error_log
  # verified JPG support enabled in phpinfo() function
  # interesting note, config.cache no longer exists, hopeful news
  ./configure         # this time without --with-jpeg-dir
  make
  make install
  apachectl stop      # verified in ps
  apachectl start     # verified in error_log
  # phpinfo() still says JPG support enabled

Bummer.

This is not actually a bug. The PHP configure checks what
the GD library supports. It doesn't matter if you use
--with-jpeg-dir or other similar options. They are only
needed if you get some problems configuring.
