[2.1.121-pre1] Weird alpha defconfig?

Alpha'ers on the bleeding edge may have noticed a change in the
arch/alpha/defconfig.

I _hope_ this is an experimental change, designed to find things that
break before 2.2... If this is a release candidate and not an
experiment, I respectfully request that the changes be backed out. The
Alpha defconfig used to be perfect (for me:)), but it now turns on

CONFIG_ EXPERIMENTAL, MODVERSIONS, KMOD, IDE*,
FIREWALL, NET_ALIAS, MULTICAST, TRANSPARENT_PROXY,
RARP, IP_MASQ*, FB*, ALWAYS_DEFRAG, MAGIC_SYSRQ, etc.

A lot of these options are not useful at all except in specialized
situations...

Thanks,

Jeff
