Hi Emilio,

        Thanks for the reminder.

There's nothing "ccan-specific" about config.h, and I think it's a bad
idea to make it so.  Almost every project wants one, and autconf
etc. can certainly generate one to keep ccan happy.

Hmm, perhaps I should write that, since it seems to be an FAQ?

Thanks,
Rusty.
PS.  Yeah, I still need to get rid of the ccan makefiles by providing
     a decent replacement...
