But the general rule is that <config.h> must always be included first, no?
So there shouldn't ever be a possibility of including it twice.

It might be better to have config.h do something like this:

#ifdef CONFIG_H
# error "config.h included twice"
#endif
#define CONFIG_H

Sp libinetutils.h includes config.h?  Then that is a problem.
One possible fix is to arrange for libinetutils.h to be built from
libinetutils.in.h, the same way that (for example) stdint.h is built
from stdint.in.h in gnulib.
