It would be nice if I could get it into 2.6, but it's not a problem if it
has to wait. I'm currently busy getting menuconfig working again and then

I looked through the list and except from real syntax errors nothing
prevents an automatic conversion.
I have to manually fix things like CONFIG_ALPHA_NONAME, which is first set
by a choice statement and later redefined. My new parser can't deal with
this, because user input is given the highest priority.
