The sh people have decided to create the list based on the content of the directory. Therefore you see the SCCS entry, and that's why you need to do a 'bk bet'. In general you cannot expect the konfig and build system to work 100% if there is random files missing in the tree. Those files bk can checkout automatically is more by luck - and no effort has been put into making this a trustworthy way to do it. I expect sh to change their defconfig system to the same infrastructure as used by ppc, arm and others. > There are also several archs that do not have any arch-specific > help. ppc64 (unlike ppc) is one such example.
