I'm unclear exactly what the question is. You can compile guestfsd
(just the daemon) this way:

./configure \
--enable-daemon \
--disable-appliance \
--disable-fuse \
--disable-perl \
--disable-python \
--disable-ruby \
--disable-haskell \
--disable-php \
--disable-erlang \
--disable-gobject
make

$ ls -l daemon/guestfsd
-rwxrwxr-x. 1 rjones rjones 2073914 Sep 12 09:57 daemon/guestfsd

You still have to run that command on each distro/version that you
want to build a daemon for, assuming that's what you're trying to do.

Try:

./configure --help | grep -E -- '--(dis|en)able'

to get a list of things that can be enabled or disabled. There is no
way currently to disable building the library, tools and language
bindings as a whole, although arguably we should add that.
