Hmm... I just pulled down the latest 'config' sources (as of 6 minutes ago)
and they compiled and run just fine.  ('config GENERIC' worked wihtout error).
I'm not sure why the one you compile would be doing that, unless something 
went awry with the sup...  Maybe try pulling down 

 ftp://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/NetBSD-current/tar_files/src/config.tar.gz

and see if that works better for you (it compiles/runs fine for me).
If that fails, let me know, and I'll make arrangements to get a 'config 
binary to you.

I did a complete rebuild from the Sept. 6 sources, without any grief.

Later...
