Subject2.4.25+ ppc32 "make xconfig" error
Hi,

The make xconfig command spits out the following error (warning):

ERROR - Attempting to write value for unconfigured variable
(CONFIG_ALTIVEC).

This is on a PowerMac 8600 running YellowDog 2.1.

Commenting the VMX thing for the Power4 in arch/ppc/config.in fixes the
problem:

[kevdig@PowerMac8600B ppc]$ diff -U 3 config-{old,new}_in

if [ "$CONFIG_4xx" = "y" -o "$CONFIG_8xx" = "y" ]; then

This problem also prevents you from enabling AltiVec (UI unresponsive).
