Question to the august here assembled:  How does one generate the build
tree without compiling anything?  

After running configure the first time, the build tree is almost
empty.  If at that point we can generate all the Makefiles, and only
those, then this would work: 

        CXXFLAGS='-std=c++14' ../configure
        make makefiles
        make -C libcody CXXFLAGS=std=c++11
        make
