This seems like a no-brainer to me that the default and the "If
unsure" message should match, any reason you haven't picked-it up?

Thanks

Two reasons:

1) I have not started to look at new patches until now

   And this is due to several reasons.
   First off I have been without internet for a while.
   And secondly I do try to avoid new patches during the
   merge window which does not fix merge issues.

2) I am not convinced that "default y" is really what we want.
   What does popular distroes use (aka what gets wide testing?).

Hmnn, good point, in any case there is an inconsistency here. I can
only speak for my laptop here running openSUSE 11.0 (X86-64)

gunzip -c /proc/config.gz | grep CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE
CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y
uname -a
