   enable-crypto-mdebug
-                   Build support for debugging memory allocated via
-                   OPENSSL_malloc() or OPENSSL_zalloc().
+                   This now only enables the failed-malloc feature.
 
   enable-crypto-mdebug-backtrace
-                   As for crypto-mdebug, but additionally provide backtrace
-                   information for allocated memory.
-                   TO BE USED WITH CARE: this uses GNU C functionality, and
-                   is therefore not usable for non-GNU config targets.  If
-                   your build complains about the use of '-rdynamic' or the
-                   lack of header file execinfo.h, this option is not for you.
-                   ALSO NOTE that even though execinfo.h is available on your
-                   system (through Gnulib), the functions might just be stubs
-                   that do nothing.
+                   This is a no-op; the project uses the compiler's
+                   address/leak sanitizer instead.
