no.
as said before, i see (!) configure as a way to build a package
optimized for the machine that configure is executed on.
it is not a tool to make the most stripped down version.

if you want configure to create a most generic package, then you will
have to pass arguments to it (e.g. "--disable-NV")

this is correct, but as said above, configure is not necessarily the
tool to create packages that run on all machines.
