Any suggestions how?  I've seen people write scripts to modify/rename
config.h but that seems overkill in this case.

The simple solution is to have one of your own headers make the necessary inclusions and prevent any accidental multiple-inclusion. If there are multiple header files named config.h, then some additional means must be used to discriminate between them, such as including their parent directory path.
