Good thought. Done. This feature will be in the 1.2.1 version.

Funny you should mention that. The first correction patch I was planning
to generate was one to remove orphans in *all* the defconfigs. I figured
this would be about the least controversial way to start the cleanup, and
it will deal with 82 of the 699 identified broken symbols. For this case,
I can generate a correct patch mechanically.
