Setuptools has not stabilised their interface to pass build options, and forcing user to change from
--build-option
to two successive flavors of--config-settings
is not ideal.The setuptools tracking issue seems to be pypa/setuptools#3896, with some design discussion in pypa/setuptools#4083.
This does not mean that we will not want to remove these legacy options if setuptools does not move, but for now this is not a huge maintenance burden.
