Exactly. :)  I had the incredible bad luck that the line got cut off at the
end of a CONFIG_ symbol that made sense - if it had showed up *half* a symbol,
I'd have gone investigating. ;) (Even a '>' or '<' saying data offscreen to
right or left would be sufficient, if somebody wants a small but productive
kernel (config system actually) task to hack on.)

I'd code it myself, but I have an SL8500 to install, and need to figure out
how my laptop made it into the bag this morning still up and running (I hit
the power button, it seemed to power down - blank screen, power light off,
but syslog msgs prove it was up and running for another 4 hours before it
shut down on a thermal check...)
