it seems like most build systems pass a -DHAVE_CONFIG_H flag to the
compiler which still causes `#if HAVE_CONFIG_H` to be false while it
clearly is supposed to be triggered.
That said, I do not really see a good reason why the inclusion of the
`config.h` file should be guarded in the first place: the file is
guaranteed to always available by proper build systems, and if it was
not included the build either breaks at the linking stage or -- at the
very least -- the runtime behavior of the resulting libraries will be
very awkward.
