Because it is a two step procedure:
- build-dir/config.h.cmake is generated from all config.h.cmake in the
  source directory of this module and all modules that we depend on.
- Then config.h is generated from that one.

The button is there for developers to test new changes in upstream
modules. A better alternative would be to explicitly state the
dependencies between the config.h.cmake files.
