There is no point in disabling something which is disabled by default
(then listed as a --enable-xxx option), or to enable something which is
enabled by default (listed as a --disable-xxx option in configure
--help). Won't make any difference.

And as I said, you shouldn't be using a --enable-xxx option unless you
know for certain it does good things for you.
