-‘--enable-crypt’
-     Install the legacy passphrase-hashing library ‘libcrypt’ and the
-     header file ‘crypt.h’.  ‘unistd.h’ will declare the function
-     ‘crypt’ regardless of this option.  Using this option does not
-     change the set of programs that may need to be linked with
-     ‘-lcrypt’; it only means that the GNU C Library will provide that
-     library.

-     able to use libcrypt alternatives such as libxcrypt and need this
-     legacy implementation as a temporary workaround.  Note that
-     libcrypt may be removed in a future release.

 ‘--disable-scv’
      Disable using ‘scv’ instruction for syscalls.  All syscalls will
      use ‘sc’ instead, even if the kernel supports ‘scv’.  PowerPC only.
