The setting is still listed as commented out and 0, but this feature is now on by default in the latest build.

lvm.conf needs to be fixed, perhaps it's a result of trying to change the default value using a configuration option? Using configure for this really seems unnecessarily complicated. Just put DEFAULT_USE_DEVICES_FILE back in defaults.h and use patch to change 0 or 1. Marking VERIFIED in latest lvm2/kernel.
