They shouldn't be required.  If they really are, either the code is
using internal stuff we don't want to export, or there is something we
should export that we currently don't.  We'd have to hear the details
to know for sure.

We want to avoid installing config.h if we possibly can (it isn't
clear that we can, but we can try).  Do we do this renaming just to
cause link errors if different pieces of code disagree about the
exception handling mechanism?  Or is there another reason?  If the
former, is there another way we can do it, one which doesn't require a
macro in cni.h?
