When composing that email, I originally wrote $(wildcard
config.mak.autogen) as the suggestion but changed it to the looser
$(wildcard config.mak*) when I realized that the developer's own
config.mak probably ought to be a dependency, as well. Taking your
objection into consideration, we could mention both explicitly:

    Documentation/GIT-EXCLUDED-PROGRAMS: Makefile \
        $(wildcard config.mak) $(wildcard config.mak.autogen)
