Moving the test "up" is good,
but changing the warning like that is less so,
since it no longer says what the code is doing.
Your diagnostic would be appropriate if it were for a fatal error.
However, when overriding a user-supplied option (--with-python),
the warning should say what it's doing, so the user does not
wonder if instead we've turned on --enable-shared.

Subject: [PATCH] let "configure --disable-shared" work once again
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Without this change, ./autogen.sh --disable-shared && make would
evoke a "can not build a shared library" failure for libvirtmod.la
due to the new use of libtool's -shared link option in
python/Makefile.am.  Now, --disable-shared also
disables building python.

* configure.in: Make --disable-shared imply --without-python and
silently override --with-python.
