That's a question for Ben! I've had a problem with the Benh kernel and its
config files - maybe Ben is trying out new things and hasn't got everything
up to date yet.
Here's a suggestion. Get your old kernel source and copy the ".config"
file to the new kernel directory. Then do "make oldconfig" whilst in the
new kernel directory - you will be prompted for whether you want to include
the latest options. In most cases the answer will be "no". You can then
build the new kernel and it should have the same options set as in your old
kernel.
