Configure.help has been split up, menuconfig and xconfig don't know this yet. If you want to fix it, feel free. It's probably not all that hard - just remember what directory you read Config.in from and look for Configure.help there. The current config tools are (it is believed) approaching the end of their lifecycle, so most of the usual suspects aren't terribly eager to hack on them in 2.5. That's probably why this isn't fixed yet. Peter
