Well, I don't think we can assume that this is true. When a package
version is bumped, nobody checks carefully that no new config options
had been added for optional dependencies on libraries. So I'm pretty
sure that there are many, many packages in Buildroot that don't do
--disable-<foo> when the library is not available.
