On Windows, configure bails out early if an unknown option is
passed, what I find rather helpful.

It's not always been like that, there have been times where configure ignored 
unknown arguments silently.  So, I'd say, we're open for improvements.

well, I do consider it as a bug fix.

Perhaps a BC compromise here would be to at least *also* echo to stderr, while leaving the existing
echo to stdout in place?

I'm not saying this behaviour is wrong or right, I've been bitten by this already myself,
but I do think that could be considered a BC break, as I remember it always being like that,
although I'm only 100% sure on 5.2+
