I just checked and it still supports --HEAD as an option. The other options do seem to be gone, but it looks like it builds with --with-cocoa --with-modules --with-libsvg, though it would be necessary to look at the details of the recipe to confirm. I would expect it is built with the same options as the binary cask version.

Just a FYI, as of two years ago it appears that Homebrew's vanilla emacs
formula hard codes --without-ns and does not support --HEAD.  See
