Hi kevin,

I found out what the problem was; my development system was using the
wrong toolchain.

I will build a new patch and compress it and put it on the mailing list.
I will make the necessary 
changes, to go from config.h to Kconfig. So there will be no duality on
the configuration.

I moved out already the "BIG" banners and made them like more files in
your project.

Marc
