It is --with-nativecomp, but see below.

The native-comp branch is not merged with into pgtk branch (nor into
master, so --with-nativecomp only works on the native-comp branch (and
that option is required to enable the feature)), so right now neither
branch contains those two features.

You can try creating a new branch that merges those two.
