Please use the --without-stlport configure switch.

This option is the new default. Thanks to Jan for fixing configure.in.
But you'd need to update to the newest trunk version to benefit from
Jan's fix.


Is there any reason why we still need this option (be it default or
not)?

If there is a choice between step-wise evolution and a big-bang change I'd always prefer the step-wise evolution.

I agree. But I would like steps that go from valid state to valid state. From what I have heard I had the impression that the --without-stlport option had only one valid value left and that using --with-stlport would break the build.


 Is there any scenario where we would need that switch to turn on
support for stlport?

A developer reusing the latest recipes from our snapshots page would fail with the latest trunk if the --without-stlport option was no longer recognized.

Would it not be better to update the recipes?

I would assume that removing the configure option and adapting the build recipes take just a couple of hours to do. Would it not be better to spend this additional time and make the change of removing support for stlport complete in one step?
