fetchinfo's emerge log against claws-mail-3.9.0

This is very likely an upstream bug, as claws-mail-3.8.1 had config.h, but claws-mail-3.9.0 does not, and claws-mail-fetchinfo-0.4.25 has an ifdef on HAVE_CONFIG_H before trying to include it, but best I can see, hard-defines it on.

Further, there's an entry in the claws-mail changelog, 3.8.1cvs8 that notes "Don't export config.h in public headers", but unfortunately, they don't seem to have updated and released a new fetchinfo version that doesn't hard-define HAVE_CONFIG_H on.

Of course since new claws-mail versions require a rebuild of the plugins, fetchinfo's broken here ATM as I can't rebuild it.

I reported this upstream.

Upstream fixed it and released the fix with the old tarball name....distribution-friendly.  Those guys are great.
