   $ ./configure

   Configure findings:
     FFI:        no (user requested: default)
     readline:   yes (user requested: default)
     libsigsegv: no, consider installing GNU libsigsegv

Especially for packages with many dependencies or with many configuration
opportunities it would be useful.

What do you think? Should we pursue this further?

See a recent thread on address@hidden The main problem is handling this with AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS; I think it should be handled in Autoconf.
