Hello

Maybe i´m not up-to-date, but i tried out the new 2.6 kernel with the new -O option and it fails with:
Without the -O option it works. Normally one calls make help and not make -O.. help, but this fails also, if the environment variable for -O is set.

Thanks, already fixed in my local tree.
[Append $(srctree)/ to path to makefiles.
