Indeed.

For the very same reason that Dan mentions I prefer a 'curl' prefixed
name that makes the file name unique from other software's potential
build.h

I was also thinking of curldefs.h but I have the feeling that it
'invites' to make changes to it.

I'd rather find a name that transmitted the idea that whatever is in
there is decided by libcurl's build/configuration process and that
neither the user nor the library builder is allowed to change or
further adjust it. I suppose that in the end its better to just make
another note in the inside.

How about curlrules.h with an intentional double meaning ?
