Yeah. Note that it's more like an 'add' operation, not a modify 
operation, thus:

	make addconfig=kvm

or:

	make addconfig kvm

would be intuitive and would work well too.

Sam, Michal, which one would you prefer? The latter might have the 
advantage that it's additive, enabling future usages like:

	make addconfig kvm debug

as a quick shortcut to enable baseline KVM support and generic kernel 
debugging features, without having to twiddle with the menuconfig.

Hm? Would be nice to move on this issue, we've painted it to death 
already ;-)

Thanks,

	Ingo
