I know this probably smells like creeping feature-itis, but it might be useful to 
display
the kernelrelease string, as in:

KERNELRELEASE=$(VERSION).$(PATCHLEVEL).$(SUBLEVEL)$(EXTRAVERSION)

somewhere on the screen for menuconfig and xconfig.  The present CML1 menuconfig
already does this.  One use for this feature would be for doing a screen capture and 
later referencing the captured image with the context of what kernel was being 
configured 
at the time.

For that purpose, the kernelrelease string would have to be displayed on every menu.

For make xconfig, that could be on the bar with the Back and Help buttons.  For make
menuconfig, that could be just below or on the same line as the top title.

Just an idea,

Steven
