+Use --without-all if you want to build a small executable with the minimal

+--without-png --without-gpm.  Note that --without-all leaves X support
+enabled, and using the GTK2 or GTK3 toolkit creates a lot of library
+dependencies.  So if you want to build a small executable with very basic
+X support, use --without-all --with-x-toolkit=no.  For the smallest possible
+executable without X, use --without-all --without-x.  If you want to build
+with just a few features enabled, you can combine --without-all with
+--with-FEATURE.  For example, you can use --without-all --with-dbus
+to build with DBus support and nothing more.

 Use --with-wide-int to implement Emacs values with the type 'long long',
 even on hosts where a narrower type would do.  With this option, on a
 typical 32-bit host, Emacs integers have 62 bits instead of 30.
