This is rather bogus way to solve this problem.  Enforcing sysutils/hal is
wrong; if there is no way to disable HAL detection, exists() should be used
instead.  However, I see that there is --with-hal option available, maybe
it's better just set it to "no"?

If something is broken in configure script, it should be fixed instead of
pulling stuff that only few people actually using these days (and in fact
is deprecated upstream AFAIK).
