E.g., --with-expat. The intent is that it would be a supplement, not a replacement. [Apologies if that wasn't clear ...] Note that the current code doesn't print *where* libexpat,etc. were found. Do we want to take the step of adding that to config.in so it's available to gdb to print? [that's an honest question, not a rhetorical one] Which gets back to my earlier question: Do we care about printing --with-libbabeltrace-prefix?
