I copy in the g5_defconfig and then do my "make oldconfig". which eventually prompts with: Macintosh device drivers (MACINTOSH_DRIVERS) [N/y] (NEW)
But I see what got me.. The g5_defconfig hasnt been updated since before the MACINTOSH_DRIVERS option was added back in April; so I have no old setting to carry over into the new.
Unless someone beats me to it, I'll spin up a new g5_defconfig via the ppc-dev list shortly. :-)
