In general, yes we need this, please commit it and 'make it work'.
A couple of additional problems noted below:

I'm dubious about adding <config.h> to these files, since they are
supposed to be examples, and therefore should work outside the
project.  If people were to copy these files somewhere, then they
would fail to compile or (perhaps worse) include some random config.h
header.
