Option checking presumes all config-subdirs configure scripts are 
accepting the same set of configure-options.

This doesn't always apply and even less applies in cases of optional 
config-subdirs, esp. in cases when config-subdirs originate from 
different origins and are being treated as optional drop-in packages.
