Kinda.  Right now, config.h.in is autogenerated from the configure.in
script.  We then copy bits into windows-NT/config.h.in as we find we
need them.

I've given it some thought, but haven't done anything about, at least
since some of the GNULIB modules started using AH_VERBATIM.  My
thought was that it might be useful to keep a windows-NT/file with a
list of a #define XXXX YYY style, then generate the
windows-NT/config.h file from that file and the root config.h.in so
that these sort of changes would show up automatically, but I hadn't
gotten around to it.  The same script should probably warn when macros
in the windows-NT list disappear from the root config.h.in.
