It holds configuration information about the compiler, library and
architecture that you're building for.

It is one of the inputs used by autoconf to generate the config.h file.
The file is created as part of the process of running ./configure before
you compile the library.  If you're not compiling on a POSIX system that
can run ./configure, you'll have to create your own config.h file manually.
