Undocumented (so watch out when updating Autoconf), but:
  eval "$ac_configure_args"

should provide you with what you need.  Some unneeded things are
stripped out (--silent, --no-create, --no-recursion).

I suppose Autoconf could provide a macro to access this variable
which we could then document.

Cheers,
Ralf
