Well, I just found out that the names of some linux 2.4 .config
OPTIONS= changed a little in 2.6 so that they weren't
automagically reinserted by make *config, e.g.:

2.4 --> CONFIG_FBCON_CFB16=y
2.6 --> CONFIG_FONT_8x16=y

Otherwise it just works.  Moral of the story:  don't just blindly
stick in your old .config when configuring a new kernel release.
