If it results in better/working help text and makes it easier to configure a working kernel, it makes a lot of sense for 2.6. I don't suppose I could interest you in making "allmodconfig" work on ia64? That's useful for testing purposes. "allyesconfig" is probably rather hopeless, because the resulting kernel would be too big to link (and doesn't really make sense anyhow). --david
