Bug description:  Misleading error message in configure script

Description:
------------
Refering bug #42907
When supplying bogus parameters to the ./configure script, it reports the
following
Notice: Following unknown configure options were used:

Actual result:
--------------
Notice: Following unknown configure options were used:
