I agree.  The 'configure' script could be improved, though.  If we truly
want to enable this by default, then the defaulting should be moved to
configure.  This will give a more accurate portrayal in sysconfig.
Also, we can do the USE but !HAVE check in configure, which is better
anyway because the error is caught earlier.

I am thinking something like the attached.  Thoughts?

P.S. We could probably get rid of the HAVE macro all together by doing
all the work in the 'configure' script.
