There's a lot of strangeness caused by our AUTORECONF...
I guess it has something to do with all the warnings we get when
AUTORECONFing, since in m4/with_pkg.m4 I do see:
m4_case(def_arg,
[yes],[m4_pushdef([with_without], [--disable-]with_arg)],
[m4_pushdef([with_without],[--enable-]with_arg)])
AC_ARG_ENABLE(with_arg,
AS_HELP_STRING(with_without, description[ @<:@default=]def_arg[@:>@]),,
[AS_TR_SH([enable_]with_arg)=def_arg])
In other words, it registers an --enable option.
I guess that the PKG_CHECK_MODULES option implicitly enables a
--with-foo option as well, but doesn't mention it in the help text.
Regards,
Arnout
