As another comment on the configure script in this area, I would
suggest a prominent error message if xwidgets were requested, but the
configure script decided not to turn on this option. Currently, it
does that silently (except for the above indication, which can easily
get lost among the others), which IMO is bad UI. If the user asked
for xwidgets, but we cannot give it, we should complain loudly.
