As the latter does not quite scale, and also source files depending
on the setting/feature did not rebuild in case of a change.

There are intentionally more config_xxx.h files (so autoheader
from autotools is not used), so that a setting change does not force
automatically a rebuild of everything. Running configure does not
touch those config_xxx.h files that have not changed.

There's config/README with a howto.
