It looks like it's not propagated to newlib-cygwin/configure, and
newlib-cygwin/configure --help=recursive seems to loop recursing on
newlib 4.2.0, so it's only shown by winsup/configure:
In my testing, it seems that a top-level './configure --help=recursive'
terminates eventually, it's just that there are also configures in
subdirectories of newlib (for no good reason I know of), which makes it
spend a long time repeating mostly useless output...
