If the configure changes have the effect of deprecating something or
adjusting the required versions of something, there is a serious problem
and they should not have been approved: the documentation of prerequisites
in install.texi does not appear to have been changed and it still
specifies CLooG-PPL. It is not acceptable to change the prerequisites
without including the documentation changes in the same commit.

Regarding recommended configurations the same principle as before still
applies: the version of GCC and the configure options should determine the
code generated, so given any particular configure options it should not
accept different CLooG variants that may cause GCC to generate different
code, it should accept only the recommended version unless
sanity-check-disabling options such as --disable-cloog-version-check are
passed.
