    SubjectRe: pre9 and xconfig warnings
    Hi Meelis,

    > WARNING - broken Config.in! CONFIG_PMAC was not declared!

    Sigh, I know.

    I can't turn it off until I know that every line in there is just noise.
    Some lines were real bugs ("m was not declared!").

    > This is on an x86. For 2.2.0 this should be turbed off IMHO.

    This bug doesn't even begin to come close to "paper bag" importance.

    There's a saying: "don't shake the jello". (Everyone who has read the
    actual xconfig changes in the pre-9 patch, feel free to laugh at the irony
    of that.) But I do mean it; I never send anything to Alan or Linus until
    it's been through my testing pipeline. That's why, even though I am
    fixing the old bugs slowly, no *new* bugs are appearing in xconfig.

    Also at this time, I am not bothering Linus unless xconfig corrupts
    user files or opens security holes. He has plenty to do right now.
    I have plenty of time to submit patches to him for 2.2.1.
