Sorry about that, Peter. I get bitten by oldconfig all the time so I have a script to manage all my configs. But it it would be nice if we had a way to express config options transitions in kbuild. I guess we could do something like the following and let it sit for a release cycle to help people transition. Bit of a hack, but it worked for me in my quick testing... -- Martin K.
