The RTEMS_BSPOPTS_* macros add defines to bspopts.h. Somewhat 
oversimplified, they work similar to AC_CONFIG_HEADER/config.h.

They don't add AM_CONDITIONALS. If you really want an AM_CONDITIONAL, 
you need to add it yourself.

However, you should really check, if you actually want an 
exported/global define in bspopts.h or an AM_CONDITIONAL.

In most cases, you will not want either of these.
