I think the default messages should be restricted to the things that
most users care about, which is basically what we do already (with
FreeType for instance). 99% of our users couldn't care less if NAS or
ICU is missing, so we shouldn't add noise about that.

If the goal is to help packagers to get it right, then we can add a
--enable-packager-mode option that does extra diagnostics without
unnecessarily scaring end users.
