+\subsection{econf -{}-disable-static option}
+The \t{-{}-disable-static} option in \t{econf} (see section~\ref{sec:build-commands}) was intended
+to disable only static Libtool archive building. The original check for either
+\t{-{}-disable-static} or \t{-{}-enable-static} occuring in \t{configure -{}-help} output produced
+false positives. The specification was therefore updated in November 2022; it now requires both
+\t{-{}-enable-static} and \t{-{}-enable-shared}, and in addition checks for a proper end of the
+option string.
