  Configure by default should find out the available GPU and build for that sm_*  it should not require the user to set this (how the heck is the user going to know what to set?)  If I remember correctly there is a utility available that gives this information. 

  For generic builds like in package distributions I don't know how it should work, ideally all the possibilities would be available in the library and at run time the correct one will be utilized.
