ACK. The ./configure script's syntax is quite convenient and semi-standard.
So, IMHO, all packages which have such an configure stage should support
that syntax, even those who code those scripts manually.
Strange, but some projects insist in having their config scripts incompatible
with autoconf's, just to show that it wasn't produced by it ;-o

Well, if you count in the improber uses of autoconf (AC_TRY_RUN, etc),
then: yes.
