For that please use
./config.status --config
It is properly quoted for eval. It is new in 2.65.
I have always used './config.status --version'. There was a time when
the output of --version could be completely reused as is but then
someone decided it should be more pretty so now it requires two
cut-and-paste operations. This is something I use quite often in
order to create similar builds with somewhat different options. I see
that the output of --config is incomplete because it does not reveal
the location of the configure script used to generate it. Without
knowing the path to the configure script, the information produced is
not very useful.
