Of course, you are right.

AM_ENABLE_SHARED
if test "$OS" = linux -a $ac_cv_sizeof_off_t -lt 8; then
       dnl Need to disable shared libraries, to get llseek() to work.  Long
       dnl story.  The short story is: lseek() isn't in glibc, so a syscall
       dnl must be made.  syscalls can't be made from within shared 
libraries,
       dnl because of a bug (?) in gcc.
       AC_MSG_WARN(
off_t is less than 8 bytes.  Using llseek syscall, and disabling shared
libraries.)
       AM_DISABLE_SHARED
fi


As you can see we have both AM_ENABLE_SHARED and AM_DISABLE_SHARED 
mactro is use.

Because of they you have two options simultaneously
