there should be no harm if they would include inclusion guards.

what am I missing here?

There may be several config.h files, each of which has somewhat different content. Bing!

So what would be wrong with generating an include guard tag based on the name of the project?

For instance,

--------
#ifndef GRAPHICSMAGICK_CONFIG_H
#define GRAPHICSMAGICK_CONFIG_H

...

#endif
--------
