Color me puzzled, but where is it getting the config.h idea from?

  $ git grep config\\.h
  compat/fnmatch/fnmatch.c:# include <config.h>
  compat/regex/regex.c:#include "config.h"
  t/t4014-format-patch.sh:test_expect_success '--no-add-headers overrides config.headers' '

Similarly, 'git grep config perl' only turns up matches in perl code. So what tells it to use config.h?
