[Python-Dev] autoconf --enable vs. --with

I've been working a bit on the build process lately.  I came
across this in the autoconf documentation:


    If a software package has optional compile-time features, the
    user can give `configure' command line options to specify
    whether to compile them. The options have one of these forms:

        --enable-FEATURE[=ARG]
        --disable-FEATURE

    Some packages require, or can optionally use, other software
    packages which are already installed.  The user can give
    `configure' command line options to specify which such
    external software to use.  The options have one of these
    forms:

        --with-package[=ARG]
        --without-package


Is it worth fixing the Python configure script to comply with
these definitions?  It looks like with-cycle-gc and mybe
with-pydebug would have to be changed.
