I'd like to suggest that if such a change is made it should be made more
thoroughly - also removing the "Available extensions:" author details from
Banner files. Probably the whole Banner mechanism should be removed
(again, making sure contrib.texi has adequate credits for the things
removed from Banner files). The only actual variable information it
presents is whether add-ons (i.e. libidn) are enabled, and there's a case
for simply making libidn unconditional and removing the add-ons mechanism
as well.
