Autoconf 2.62 warns about them by default (quoting NEWS):
| ** Warnings are now generated by default when an installer invokes
| 'configure' with an unknown --enable-* or --with-* option.
| These warnings can be disabled with the new AC_DISABLE_OPTION_CHECKING

Presence of AC_CONFIG_SUBDIRS also turns off the warning as the
mechanism isn't yet smart enough to know about subdir configure options.
