If none of the other suggestions fullfills your needs, you can do
it manually. Provided you want to install your myconfig.h containing
the macros MY_MACRO_1 and MY_MACRO_2 into $prefix/include/mylib,
you may add the following to your Makefile.am:

all-local: myconfig.h

myconfig.h: config.h
        echo "Creating myconfig.h"
        rm -fR myconfig.h
        grep -e "MY_MACRO_1\|MY_MACRO_2" > myconfig.h

install-data-local: all-local
        echo "Creating myconfig.h"
        $(mkinstalldirs) $(includedir)/mylib
        $(INSTALL_DATA) myconfig.h $(includedir)/mylib/myconfig.h

I hope the code above is correct.
