On the contrary:
We invested a huge amount of work into the configure 
script and I don't remember a request for an additional 
feature atm.
At the same time, people don't stop to ask how not to 
use the script (and ignore both possible solutions and 
the etiquette on this mailing list). This is quite 
annoying.

Is ./configure --help really an unusual way to learn 
about its options?
