So I think the best way to manage it is to be explicit: "V=0" when 
nothing is specified (because we want the default to be silent), and 
"V=1" when V=1 from the command line.
In worst case, it is not taken into account.
Otherwise, it is correctly managed, whatever the default setting of 
AM_SILENT_RULE.

NB: I said that the behaviour was kept unchanged, but in fact there is 
one case that seems to be better handled with my modification: when 
AM_SILENT_RULES is used without argument (i.e. the default is verbose). 
Now we turn it to quiet by forcing explicit V=0.
