Re: patch/proposal: obsolete configurations in 3.1
You could only get away with that if you had a web form where the user
checked off everything they wanted, and it produced a list of files to
download. We do this for DJGPP because the list of files and
installation instructions depend on each other and the variant of
dos/windows/whatever you're installing on.
You could split out the backends if configure were smart enough to
realize that a configuration is supported but missing. You don't want
a random error here.
