This makes it much easier to find a particular thing in config.log.

The information may be lacking in other shells, resulting in harmless
empty output.  (This is why we don't use the proper ${FUNCNAME[*]}
array syntax - other shells will choke on that.)

The extra output is only printed if configure is run with bash.  On
systems where /bin/sh is not bash, it is necessary to say bash
./configure to get the extra debug info in the log.
