You should definitely have 'config' (in the same directory as 'CONFIG').

Here is a copy that should work with 2.0:

# -*-Perl-*-
#	@(#)config	1.4	10/4/95;
#
# Extract relevant info from the CONFIG and patchlevel.h files.

my @dirs = ('.', '..', '../..', '../../..');

sub config
{
    my(%attr, %patchlvl);
    my($left, $right, $dir, $dummy, $config);
    
    foreach $dir (@dirs)
    {
	$config = "$dir/CONFIG";
	last if(-f $config);
    }
    open(CFG, $config) || die "Can't open $config: $!";
    
    while()
    {
	chop;
	s/^\s*//;
	next if /^#|^\s*$/;
	s/#.*$//;
	
	($left, $right) = split(/=/);
	$left =~ s/\s*//g;

	$sattr{$left} = $right;
    }

    close(CFG);

    foreach $dir (@dirs)
    {
	$config = "$dir/patchlevel.h";
	last if(-f $config);
    }
    open(CFG, $config) || die "Can't open $config: $!";

    while()
    {
	chop;
	next if !/^#/;
	
	($dummy, $left, $right) = split(' ');
	$left =~ s/\s*//g;

	$patchlvl{$left} = $right;
    }
    close(CFG);
    $patchlvl{UNOFFICIAL} = '' if(!defined($patchlvl{UNOFFICIAL}));

    $sattr{VERSION} = "$patchlvl{VERSION}.$patchlvl{PATCHLEVEL}$patchlvl{UNOFFICIAL}";

    \%sattr;
}
