Comment:

 Can we try a slightly different format, that includes the value of each
 configure option?

 For example:
 {{{
 libseccomp (--disable-seccomp=no)    yes
 }}}

 This format makes the double-negative explicit, so it may be less
 confusing.

 We could generate "yes" or "no" based on a boolean argument, rather than
 printing the option value directly? If that's easier?
