on new files/directories.

x86-64 is it's own archtitecture, please don't call it 64 bit x86
machines. Just write:
directory with info on Linux support for AMD x86-64 (Hammer) machines.

The Documentation/Configure.help file has been replaced with 107
Config.help files in 2.5.7 (109 files in 2.5.7-dj1). Do this:
find . -name Config.help

Should be driver-model.txt IIRC, and s/ll/l/ too.
