After a lot of hard slog, kbuild 2.5 has now closed the implicit
dependency loop.  That is, when you rerun kbuild, it knows which
targets depend on which input files and on which config options, based
on feedback from the previous kbuild.

kbuild-2.4.4 is under http://sourceforge.net/projects/kbuild/.  I have
been working on kernel 2.4.4 until I was happy with the implicit
dependency feedback loop.  Next I will upgrade to Linus's latest
kernel.  Read Documentation/kbuild/kbuild-2.5.txt for some docs.

TODO:

Add CML2.
Add autoprobe.
Upgrade to Linus's latest.
Add more options to the install menu.
Build vmlinux correctly, the first few files should depend on the
install type.
More docs.
Other architectures.
