I assume that the concern was that some people might object to the
involvement of autoconf in building the hypervisor.  But no-one seems
to be objecting very much.

If they do then the right thing is for configure to automatically
honour settings like FLASK_ENABLE, not to have two separate options
which cause the build to fail unless you set or clear both.
