Here the need is for a macro that returns 1 or 0 whether given 
symbol is defined or not, exactly as explained in the comment above the 
definition for config_enabled() which in itself has nothing to do with 
config.

So maybe config_enabled() should be renamed to __is_defined() or 
similar, and then config_enabled() or its replacement defined in termps 
of it.
