Side note, menuconfig has been superseded for a little while now.

kconfig: new configuration interface (nconfig)
This patch was inspired by the kernel projects page, where an ncurses
replacement for menuconfig was mentioned (by Sam Ravnborg).
Building on menuconfig, this patch implements a more modern look
interface using ncurses and ncurses' satellite libraries (menu, panel,
form). The implementation does not depend on lxdialog, which is
currently distributed with the kernel.

I am not aware of any reason to keep using menuconfig. As far as I know,
nconfig implements a superset. In projects like busybox and uclibc still
stuck with only menuconfig, you're often wondering "where's X defined"
and you can't just F8, type part of the Kconfig variable name, and get
all the info you wished for.
