Not true. You can use the environment variable CFLAGS to enable
features for which there is not a configure option. For example,
I don't need all the features in the huge build, but I do want
+conceal and +mouse_sgr, so I execute these before configuring:

$ export CONF_OPT_FEAT='--with-features=normal'
$ export CFLAGS='-DFEAT_CONCEAL -DFEAT_MOUSE_SGR'

You might be able to use -U to disable a feature, but I don't know
how the configure and make commands prioritize conflicting settings
and I haven't tried that.
