The file is not included by the C compiler. It's used by some Makefile rules
that don't involve a compiler. Therefore build-aux/ is the natural place for it.

The suffix .h is only so that an editor can choose the right syntax
highlighting automatically.

Ah, that's your problem with it! :-)

I gave up this choice long ago. 'install-sh', 'missing', 'texinfo.tex',
'config.sub' etc. are not files that a user who looks into a package for
the first time should see, IMO.
