The way that autoconf works, by using AC_ARG_WITH, we get multiple
options:
--with-sendfile=yes
--with-sendfile
--with-sendfile=no
--without-sendfile
The first two are the same, as are the last two.
The logic in that file makes --with-sendfile force sendfile to be on, and
--without-sendfile to force it to be off.
