Yes, it's generated by the `configure` script in Autotools, just like Meson.

Basically I need to know what command(s) I'd need to execute in order to

If you are building Cairo with Autotools, then:

```
./configure
```

will generate a `config.h` header file in the current directory. If you are
building from Git, then I recommend using:

```
NOCONFIGURE=1 ./autogen.sh
mkdir _build && cd _build
../configure
```

Ciao,
 Emmanuele.
