The dh(1) manpage has the example:

               build:
                       dh build --before configure
                       dh_auto_configure --kitchen-sink=yes
                       dh build --after configure

I think the correct synytax is:

               build:
                       dh build --before configure
                       dh_auto_configure -- --kitchen-sink=yes
                       dh build --after configure

You need to add "--" before the dh_auto_configure arguments.
Otherwise you get an error:
  dh_auto_configure --enable-debug-log
  Unknown option: enable-debug-log
  dh_auto_configure: unknown option; aborting

dh_auto_configure(1) correctly document the syntax as [-- params]

Bye
