-------------------------+---------------------
 The result of `./configure --help` has a number of capitalization, quoting
 and spacing inconsistencies. Standard autoconf options have their
 descriptions start with lowercase, not all custom options do this. Quoting
 prevents parameters from being interpreted incorrectly and is not done
 everywhere. Finally, the AS_HELP_STRING macro should be used so spacing is
 automatically fixed and everything is aligned in neat columns. The
 attached patch fixes these inconsistencies.
