Well, --strict would be tricky, if it's possible. My reading of the
autoconf code doesn't indicate a means of doing adding abitrary
options. But something like --enable-strict-options would be fairly
straight forward. Problem being, if you mistype that option, it'll seem
to work even when it isn't :)
Maybe an evironment variable: PGAC_STRICT
Have a nice day,
