config.h is automatically generated based on acconfig.h during the
`configure` process.  Did you ever try just modifying config.h (and not
acconfig.h)?  That shouldn't trigger a desire to run autoheader (although
the timestamp on the annoying stamp-h file might have to be played with
there too).

If you change acconfig.h, it'll definitely trigger a desire to run
autoheader, as that's what it's supposed to do.  acconfig.h isn't used at
all except in generating config.h.
