What I did was to pull, then diff against my working tree (/me=SCM weenie;) for review as usual, and then apply that diff to working tree and make oldconfig as usual. That left me with the same failure this morning, despite the file being verified present in the git tree. I then used git-archive --format=tar | (cd work_tree;tar -xvf -). That spewed chunks when I tried to build it even though diff said the trees were identical. After make mrproper and restoring my saved .config, all was peachy.
Methinks dontdiff bit me.
