Right, because the code checks for the variables' presence, not for their 
value. I was mistaken on that, as was Martin apparently.

I modified the changeset so that it still doesn't fail on warnings during 
*config, but still prints them. That doesn't matter a whole lot with menuconfig 
and nconfig because they proceed to clear the screen immediately after, but 
oldconfig and olddefconfig are somewhat more helpful now:

$ make oldconfig
/home/pgeorgi/coreboot/.config:152:warning: unknown symbol: VBT_DATA_SIZE_KB
*
* Restart config...
*
...

$ make olddefconfig
/home/pgeorgi/coreboot/.config:152:warning: unknown symbol: VBT_DATA_SIZE_KB
#
# configuration written to /home/pgeorgi/coreboot/.config
#

Does that help?
