My customers complain that using certain canned configurations xconfig does not work (naturally, it works with defconfig). A problem that I am trying to fix is that it can refuse to quit with something like "Variable CONSTANT_M does not exist". The necessary "global" is indeed missing.

Can someone knowledgeable (like Chastain) have a look at the attached patch?

Thanks,
