configure
recognizes the following options to control how it

'/dev/null' to disable caching, for debugging
configure
.
--help
-
Print a summary of the options to
configure
, and exit.
--quiet
-
--silent
-
-q

Do not print messages saying which checks are being made.

configure

configure
also accepts some other, not widely used, boilerplate
options. 'configure --help' prints the complete list.
