If autoconfigure will go in the kernel, I have not problems on filenames, but when I initially created it, I thinked ev. to distribuite it as a package. Here the name matter.
IMHO longer filename ia a good things (iff normal user should not type it).

autoconf autoconfigure: symlinks
$(CONFIG_SHELL) scripts/....make autoconf == make autoconfigure.
Watch out for the generated
autoconf.hfile, it might confuse some people.
Where?
I don't find it in:
http://lxr.linux.no/search?v=2.4.17&string=autoconfigure

All the make *config entries generate include/linux/autoconf.h, it is the C representation of .config. Some people may think that autoconf.h is created by make autoconfig when it is really created by all *config steps.

I know.
My question: where do you find
autoconf autoconfigure: symlinks
$(SHELL_SCRIPT) script/...
This can cause confution, but I don't find ut in the sources.
BTW: I used 'make autoprobe' because of possible confutions, in
latter version. Now Eric will use both 'make autoconfig' and 'make autoprobe'.
The choice of name now is on Eric hands. Important is that *users* doesn't confuse it.

You don't. That was an example of how you can have multiple targets pointing to the same code, it is not in kbuild yet.

FWIW, I prefer autoprobe.
