Of course.  The configuration is reported in the logs of every
buildfarm run.  For instance, in the most recent run at this
moment,

https://buildfarm.postgresql.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=3Dcaiman&dt=3D2025=
-12-11%2015%3A00%3A05

we can see

  $ ./configure --enable-cassert --enable-debug --enable-nls --with-perl \
        --with-python --with-tcl --with-gssapi --with-openssl --with-ldap =
\
        --with-libxml --with-libxslt --with-pam --with-selinux \
        --with-systemd --with-liburing --with-libcurl --with-libnuma \
        --with-lz4 --with-zstd --prefix=3D/repos/client-code-REL_20/HEAD/i=
nst \
        --with-pgport=3D5678 --cache-file=3D/repos/client-code-REL_20/acca=
che-caiman/config-HEAD.cache

and you can drill down to the "configure" step if you want more
detail.

It's the owner's choice.  The buildfarm client's sample config file
has a list of suggested options, and I wouldn't be too surprised
if a lot of people just left that list alone.  I think the ones
paying closer attention probably try to enable as much as they can.
