Ideally it'd be in the documentation, yes.  Sorry, I don't have a
precise suggestion.

This always does globbing on $configure_options, which means we can't
reliably support arbitrary characters.  How about doing this instead?

  AT_CHECK([echo Hello | eval "top_srcdir=\$abs_top_srcdir ./configure 
$configure_options" | grep -v 'configure: loading site script '],, [Hello

and similarly for the other uses of $configure_options.
