OK, I don't need to do it then. However, there are several other config
programs in scripts/kconfig/ that are not being checked by this.


I did a 'git pull' for updates. On the rebuild, I get this error:

macro_table.c:30:31: fatal error: cwchash/hashtable.h: No such file or directory
 #include "cwchash/hashtable.h"

My problem?

thanks for your help.
