Thomas, All,

OK, I was using master to do thechecks, while you were probably stuck
on 2015.02, right? So, I had the kconfig fragment stuff coming into
play, and that hid the problem (but see below).

And in the end, I looked more in-depth at what was going on, and it is
even worse than what you reported: 'make linux-update-config' ends
without error, but the resulting file is garbage (does not match the
actual configuration).

So, indeed, there is a problem: errors are not caught, and that leaves
the user with the impresion everything was OK, when the resulting file
is broken.

I'll work on that.

Trust the y_morin on IRC, he was right after all (but not for the good
reason!).

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.
