gcc -Wall warns about config.h.in:

./../src/config.h:165: warning: `/*' within comment
./../src/config.h:171: warning: `/*' within comment
./../src/config.h:210: warning: `/*' within comment

Notice that "s/*.h" and "m/*.h" contain "/*" . . . 
Rewording those comments would make -Wall produce less distracting noise.

/* The configuration script defines opsysfile to be the name of the
   s/*.h file that describes the system type you are using.  The file
   is chosen based on the configuration name you give.

   See the file ../etc/MACHINES for a list of systems and the
   configuration names to use for them.

   See s/template.h for documentation on writing s/*.h files.  */

/* Define `subprocesses' should be defined if you want to
   have code for asynchronous subprocesses

   These do not work for some USG systems yet;
   for the ones where they work, the s/*.h file defines this flag.  */
