Follow-up Comment #4, bug #64253 (project findutils):
Speaking for a distro which tends to expose a lot of this choice to users
(Gentoo), it should be fine as long as there's explicit configure args for
each.
Lots of other packages do stuff like this too. It's only really a problem if
it's "automagic" (use-if-installed, no option to control it) or mandatory.
Truly optional stuff with --with-x or --enable-x is fine (or
--without/--disable, you get the idea).
Also, thanks! This sounds great.
