:0 c
* FEATURE ?? on
{
   # stuff
}

Note that everything to the right of the ?? is a regexp still, so if
you want to test for FEATURE containing exactly "on" you should write:

:0 c
* FEATURE ?? ^^on^^
{
   # stuff
}


With the '^^'s anchoring the very beginning and end of the value of
FEATURE's value.
