It would be good if autoconf provided an official way to produce
deferred accumulated warning text displayed the end of the configure
run.

What measure would you suggest for the case where more than a screenful
of deferred messages are displayed?

Scrolling. :-)

If even one warning message is evident at the end of the configure run, it seems likely that the user will know to scroll back to see the rest. Even a final single message which says "There were warnings issued, please inspect the configure output or config.log for details" would be useful.
