you're missusing AC_ARG_ENABLE: it cannot assume whereas you want to
default to --enable-XXX or --disable-XXX.

eg passing --disable-selinux to dmraid's configures make it actually
enable selinux support :-(

the format is "AC_ARG_ENABLE(name, help, [ use given value ], [ default action ])"

the following patch fixes it:

you might want to alter default values then since i guess you
misunderstood what the arguments should have been.
