I guess I'll answer my own question: no.

The following variables (set by their corresponding --with-<xxx> command line
switch) were used to modify the build parameters in a reasonably
system-independent way.

with_debug	debug compile
with_opt	optimized compile
with_warn	full warnings turned on (default: off)
with_profile	add profiling code

along with checks as necessary (e.g. profiling needs static library &
debugging).  This stuff was all in cf/sysconf.in, which is no longer
being included.

Is cf/sysloc.in the *only* file under cf/ currently in use?

I guess I'll put it on my list to add this functionality back in, as I do have
need of it at times.  Sure, one can override CFLAGS or whatever to do what
you want, but then you have to remember what flags are appropriate for the
system you're on, every time you do it.  Much better to put it in once, then
never have to think about it again.
