MCradiolists: line 2: syntax error near unexpected token

Hi,

I just unpacked a fresh copy of 2.4.4 and patched it to 2.4.5pre1 and 
ran into a problem. When I attempt to change the type (through 
menuconfig) of CPU to compile for, the following gets dumped to the 
console:

Every other part of menuconfig seems to work well enough, and that's 
probably the reason I've not noticed this before (this is the first time 
I've tried configuring 2.4.5pre1 on a box where I've had to change the 
CPU setting). I hope someone will find this info usefull :-)

If this is just some silly error on my part, then I appologize in 
advance for wasting your time.

Some info about my system:

Thinkpad 600 with heavily patched Slackware Linux 7.1

I extracted the menuconfig related parts from 2.4.4-ac6 and applied them 
- with 100% success... I can now select the CPU type.

Thank you!
