I was reluctant to remove anything from the package as there might be
users depending on it. OTOH, providing lib/ as-is in public headers is
certainly broken as it heavily pollutes the namespace.

Providing config.h seems pointless too. Whatever was available on the
build machine can't be taken for granted on another build machine.

I'll explain this in v2 and let you comment on it.
