My generated configure script recognises a --site option:

However, $site is never referred to. What's the purpose of this?
If memory serves, there used to be a -site option in all 'configure' scripts.
That feature was removed decades ago, and the above code attempts to cater to
people who were invoking 'configure' with the old option.
