This patch should not be accepted to discourage build-time options.
Patch for run-time option is welcome.

The patch is fixing a compilation issue, which seems reasonable. It isn't
introducing a build time option, it is merely fixing an typo in an
existing one.

Yes

Yes, it would be better not to have this build time option (in which case
the issue would have been found sooner) but that isn't the responsibility
of the person submitting this patch.

Yes

That is something that should be pushed back to the author/maintainer.

Yes

In the meantime this patch is still valid and should be applied.

No
After trying to request this kind of cleanup for several months, nothing
happens. Maybe it will be more efficient to leave bugs until someone
submit a real cleanup.
