Meta-question: Why are you disabling option-checking in the first place?
  It's contrary to GNU Coding Standards (the ability to disable option
checking is provided for non-GNU packages, but doesn't get as much
testing because GNU packages shouldn't be using it in the first place).

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.
