CONFIG_SOFT_WATCHDOG missing from 2.5.8-dj1

Once again, subject sez it all. CONFIG_SOFT_WATCHDOG is mentioned in
drivers/char/Config.help, but is not a configurable option in any part of make
{old,x,menu}config. Therefore isn't compiled or even touched:

bradl@bellicha:/usr/src/linux/drivers/char> grep CONFIG_SOFT_WATCHDOG Config.in
bradl@bellicha:/usr/src/linux/drivers/char>

Because of this, my software watchdog program refuses to run, as
softdog.o doesn't exist, which creates /dev/watchdog.

BL.
