This stuff has nothing to do in the code, particularly not in the loader. If you want to check the result of configure you should look at config.log. If you want to know whether a given feature is supported, you should try to make use of it; for instance open the audio tab in winecfg to find out which sound drivers are working, etc.
It would be kind of nice if this information was somewhere for binary builds. Unless of course you mean the rpm/deb packagers should ship with a config.log....

Even if the config.log was shipped, my feelings are thus:
There will always be people in #wine asking for help who are fairly hopeless to find and parse through a config.log, no matter how good wine gets. I agree that competent users and devs could easily find this information; heck most of them probably would know all that information without even needing to look for their own systems. But for the sake of helping people on #wine help users in debugging issues, I think this could be a help.
