Since sudo is a security software, it should be especially explicit and transparent about its build options.

I suggest to print all options in the end of configure, like:
tty-tickets.............................. yes
env-editor............................... no
ignore-dot............................... yes
etc.

This way it will easier to verify that the options are as desired.

Other people have asked for a summary at the end of the configure run so something like this will be included in a future sudo release.

Sudo 1.9.7 and higher now prints a summary of the options at the end of configure.
