But you are right that even autoconf.git:doc/autoconf.texi still has this wording: >> @example >> AC_CONFIG_FILES([stamp-h], [echo timestamp > stamp-h]) >> @end example >> >> @noindent >> so @file{config.status} ensures that @file{config.h} is considered up to >> date. @xref{Output}, for more information about @code{AC_OUTPUT}.
