That's right. --enable/--disable has to do with enabling or disabling
features in the package that's going to be installed. However, since
it doesn't make sense to build GCC, for example, without libiberty, we
might as well take it as meaning that we'll just disable it's
installation.

Sounds reasonable to me.
