No, it doesn't.  --with-feature enables a feature (irrespective of the default)
and --without-feature disables it (irrespective of default) with
this patch.  

I tested it with various combinations of things like --with-dbfawk,
--without-festival, --with-ax25, etc., and in each case the intuitive
behavior resulted, and configure ignored my attempts to enable features for 
which prequisites weren't installed (as should happen).
