2.6.2-mm1 won't compile (been doing this since 2.6.1-mm2 or so)

When I upgraded to 2.6.1-mm4, I did the usual thing, copied my old .config from 2.6.1-mm1 and did make oldconfig.

However, when I run make, this happens:

include/asm/processor.h:68: error: `CONFIG_X86_L1_CACHE_SHIFT' undeclared here (not in a function)
include/asm/processor.h:68: error: requested alignment is not a constant
make[1]: *** [arch/i386/kernel/asm-offsets.s] Error 1


The only way I've found to fix this is to add a manual #define for this symbol to autoconf.h

The config option IS in i386/defconfig, but for some reason doesn't get put into .config

if I add it to .config manually, it gets removed when I run make (?!?).

I don't think this happens if I delete .config and make one from scratch.
