CPPFLAGS are not used and thus it cannot find the generated config.h in lib

util/Makefile snippet:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
CPPFLAGS = -I. -I$(top_builddir)/lib -I$(top_srcdir)/lib
ALL_CFLAGS = $(CPPFLAGS) $(CFLAGS)
-------------------------------------------------------------------

This is a workaround for avoiding this compile time error:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
CC ../../util/subst.c
../../util/subst.c:8:20: error: config.h: No such file or directory
-------------------------------------------------------------------
