I've propose it and been shot down a few times now.

At least I can point to a full disabling list. Look for test-suite/build
tests/layer-01-minimal.opts. Thats everything that can safely be turned
off. Though you may find some of them are wanted.

All the special log types (useragent and referer logs) can be turned off
and replaced with a logformat entry in the config file.

underscores can be turned off. It enables a DNS violation which makes
Squid accept and lookup invalid domains like broken_host.example.com

You should be able to omit the --enable-auth. It's there so people can
do a blanket --disable-auth (even though that does not completely cut
out all the code yet). The non-Basic auth types are explicitly disabled
individually below which is the way to go to have only one auth scheme
working.

see the layer-001-minimal options.

Looks like a bug. The code for CD_SIBLING_HIT including display is all
wrapped in the code removal macros.

  Can you please check your build include/autoconf.h for
USE_CACHE_DIGESTS and config.log for "cache-digests" and "cache_digests"
to see if there is anything helpful showing up?
