first make sure that the config.h of whatever you are compiling is in 
the include path -> compiler options

second, if the file is not there try to manualy copy the file 
config.h.win32 or config.h.in to config.h if you are
using config.h.in (if compiling with automake etc. (./configure)) you 
have to replace all sections surounded with '@'
with their coresponding values.

but if all libs have successfully compiled and you are trying to compile 
an example, i guess you are not using the
makefiles shiped with the source-tarball, so you have to modify your 
makefile or commandline for your compiler
to include the directory where config.h is in (it depends also who is 
trying to include config.h [???]).

the common compiler switch is -I{IncludeDir} -> note that you have to 
replace {IncludeDir} with the directory where
config.h is in.

hope that helps a bit
