Looking at my Makefile, I see octave-config.h is present in BUILT_SOURCES.

 5037 BUILT_SOURCES = $(BUILT_INCS) $(BUILT_LIBOCTAVE_OPERATORS_SOURCES) \
 5038   $(GENERATED_MAKE_BUILTINS_INCS) libinterp/build-env.cc \
 5039   libinterp/builtin-defun-decls.h libinterp/builtins.cc \
 5040   libinterp/corefcn/oct-errno.cc \
 5041   libinterp/corefcn/oct-tex-lexer.cc \
 5042   libinterp/corefcn/oct-tex-parser.cc \
 5043   libinterp/corefcn/oct-tex-symbols.cc \
 5044   libinterp/operators/ops.cc libinterp/parse-tree/lex.cc \
 5045   libinterp/parse-tree/oct-parse.cc $(am__append_15) \
 5046   $(GENERATED_TEST_FILES) octave-config.h run-octave \
 5047   $(DIRSTAMP_FILES) $(am__append_65) $(am__append_66)

I tried a fresh bootstrap, configure, & make, but octave-config.h is still not 
being automatically generated.

  GEN      libinterp/corefcn/defaults.h
libinterp/corefcn/defaults.h is unchanged
  GEN      libinterp/corefcn/graphics-props.cc

In file included from libinterp/octave.cc:42:

#include "octave-config.h"

I’ve never been successful having a build tree separate from my archive. Thus, 
I’m building in hg archive. Is there any reason that may produce such a problem?
