Hey list,
Why do many autoconfiscated projects bracket inclusion of the generated
config.h with #if HAVE_CONFIG_H / #endif. Assuming the build
environment was configured, why shouldn't the source just always
unconditionally include config.h? I mean if it isn't there, typically
that means the user didn't configure first which ought to be an error
anyways, no?
