configure.ac says "experimental", so I guess it's not yet reliable enough?
It was added by Dmitry Antipov in 2012. I never use it, and didn't even recall it until I looked at configure.ac recently.
I've not have good luck with -lto elsewhere. It can make linking slow and it tends to expose compiler bugs. Unless someone's using it regularly I would consider it experimental.
It also uses the getconf command (to figure out the number of CPU cores?), which AFAIK is for glibc-only systems, right?
Yes, but if getconf is missing 'configure' is supposed to do something reasonable anyway.
