There's no way I know of doing this in the Config.in scripts. Thus
the simplest fix is to make the others depend on DEFRAG and live with
the questions (the "(needed for masquerading)" should help though).
The problem with the TRANSPARENT_PROXY-style #ifdef approach is that
it's too easy to make mistakes and miss files.

I think my proposed patch is the simplest solution. If 2.2 were
furthur away, I'd get more ambitious... At least this changes no
kernel code.
