Comment (by Xi Ruoyao):

 In this case I'm wondering sed the configure script would look better...
 Generally we don't want to sed if there's a way to override via command
 line, but in this case the `___` thing is too ugly (TM) and I guess it's
 too easy for the readers to wrongly count the number of `_` :(.

 Maybe something like `sed 's/--image-base/--nonexist-linker-option/' -i
 configure`.  Just a personal aesthetic opinion.
