Actually scons (well, our SConstruct script) will only create an empty 
config.h if one doesn't exist, but all the config options are actually passed 
through -D command line arguments. To avoid any conflict we can create it 
every time, but IMHO we should drop the autotools altogether. Given that we 
also have a mini scons available for those who don't have it installed yet, 
there's really no reason to keep autobarf around.
