Good idea. I was thinking about moving those functions into a separate
file as well.
I didn't really like to find some of the functions needed in john.c,
others in options.c or somewhere else.

Excellent.
While looking at the changes:
1.
Should print_hidden_usage() move out of options.c into listconf.c (as a
static function)?
2.
Should we enhance listconf_list_method_names() to include "source" for
FMT_MAIN_VERSION > 9?
Function listconf_parse_late() would need to be enhanced as well, to
handle "source" for FMT_MAIN_VERSION > 9.
Then, it should work for bleeding-jumbo as well.
