and not in the current kernel tree?
I did not find any others in the current tree....

OK, that works.
For kbuild/kconfig people: run:
make ARCH=arm O=test menuconfig
and then select System Type & ARM system type. The kconfig "choice" menu at this
point looks empty. It seems to be just a text windowing/display problem.
Pressing the down/up arrow keys will display the choices, although not where they
should be displayed in the rectangle, and they can be selected there.

"bool <long string>" causes kconfig choices not to be displayed
correctly, so temporarily change it to a shorter string until a real
fix is found.
