Maybe there should be (|x|menu)config menu item "SMP symmetric multiprocessor support" - if that's not possible, I suggest to create one in spite of that which actually only checks the correct SMP state in the Makefile and if it's incorrect, it issues an appropriate error message and aborts the make process. The former way would look more "professional" however, though the latter would at least help upgraders find the correct switches so they do not need to flood mailing lists and newsgroups with the same question over and over again.
