Urgh. You're right. Unfortunately chicken-config will be needed to
correctly compile certain things (like alloca - it might need an extra
header on some systems) that use the Chicken API.
I've removed the "generic" things from chicken-config.h.in (VERSION,
PACKAGE, etc.). I hope this will help a little.
