-dnl Additional SIM options that can (optionally) be configured
-dnl For optional simulator options, a macro SIM_AC_OPTION_* is defined.
-dnl Simulators that wish to use the relevant option specify the macro
-dnl in the simulator specific configure.ac file between the SIM_AC_COMMON
-dnl and SIM_AC_OUTPUT lines.
