I'm fine with this for now, but I'm wondering if we should pass the
autoconf.h to the script and parse that instead. This would give us all
set config options that we can look at.

But I need to go back and start looking at converting recordmcount.pl to
recordmcount.c again.

Doesn't this need to be with the change of recordmcount.pl too?
Otherwise applying this patch alone will break it. We need every step of
the patches to work otherwise we risk breaking a kernel bisect.
