[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #41027] config.h is too generic

[Carnë Draug]

Follow-up Comment #19, bug #41027 (project octave):

I am facing this issue again with the image package. Symbols defined by the
configure script (I'm defining them via command line and not by creating a
config.h file) get shadowed by Octave core results:

At the moment I am not actually using these symbols so I can ignore the
warnings.  But so many warnings scare the users. Also, I may want to use them
later (these or some other that core already defines).
