I've noticed that ./configure --help is inconsistent.

- The way default values are shared
- The way enumerated 
- The verbs used (e.g. enable, set)
- Some --with-xyx and some --with(out-xyz)
- Some start with capitals, others don't

Also, many of the flags could use additional explanation as to their purpose, or reference the rST file in the doc that explains what they do.
