Hi,

At http://www.xs4all.nl/~zippel/lc/ you can find the latest version of the new config system.

As already mentioned before lkc is pretty much ready (except for kbuild integration).
Linus, do you have any interest in merging it in the near future? If not, what's missing?
The 2.5.40 release showed again, how bad three different parsers are, so I think it's important to fix this finally for 2.6.

Changes this time:
- update to 2.5.41
- better error handling
- I introduced a few automaticly defined symbols (currently ARCH, KERNELRELEASE, UNAME_RELEASE), which are currently only used for the default location of the default config (e.g. "/boot/config-$UNAME_RELEASE" or "arch/$ARCH/defconfig"), which are currently still hardcoded, but could later be moved into Build.conf.
- more fine tuning
- I had to use my own Makefile again (Rules.make is slowly driving me insane).

bye, Roman
