Hi guys,

I have a new patch:

ftp://ftp.shout.net/pub/users/mec/kbuild/patch-2.2.0-pre9-mec1

Features:

- new Documentation/kbuild/ directory
- fix ugly invocation of split-include (run it at start of vmlinux)
- shrink label for 'Old CD-ROM drivers' so xconfig fits 800x600 screen
- fix "Frame Buffer Support" button location in arch/m68k/config.in
- Update maintainer address in scripts/Configure; you don't have to
send your bug reports to microsoft.com anymore! (Ironically,
this code is the cleanest, least troublesome code in the
configuration system).
- Improve the exit message for 'make config', 'make menuconfig',
'make xconfig'. The user has to run 'make dep' only if the
dependency files don't exist or if CONFIG_MODVERSIONS is set
(Jeff Ronne).
- Shut vfix the hell up ('WARNING - broken Config.in!').
- Fix menuconfig bug in lxdialog with very long titles.
- Remove the BUG_COMPATIBLE code from xconfig. Among other things,
this fixes the "what is CONFIG_PEANUT_BUTTER doing in MenuChocolate"
bug with nested submenus.

If you run this patch, let me know how it works for you. Old bugs,
new bugs, "it works for me".
