Hit reply to soon.  I meant to add,

... and then, add a manually-written config.h in the build
dir that does:

 #include <gdbsupport/support-config.h>
 #include <gdb-config.h>

We'd do the same to gdbsupport, add a config.h in its
build dir that does:

 #include "gnulib/config.h"
 #include <support-config.h>

Those config.h files would go in the build dirs so that
they're not picked by other build directories.

With that, any "#include <config.h>" in any header ends up
picking the currently-being-built project's config.h, plus
the dependencies' config.h files.

Just a half-baked thought.  Not sure it's the best idea.

Thanks,
