Yes, I'm just wondering if whoever added the OPTION_DEFAULT_AVAILABLE
did it by mistake by looking at this stuff, or whether there was a
reason for it.
Oh, hey, whaddayaknow, it was a patch I applied a couple months ago:
commit 43091e6c5069797ba17d2c7429e0122d3a5337d9

Make configure say so if we have "--with-json" but no jansson support
* configure.ac (OPTION_DEFAULT_IFAVAILABLE): New macro. Use it to
define the --with-json option. Add with_json and HAVE_JSON to the
'MISSING' checks (bug#39953).
bug#39953 has the rationale behind the change.
