I noticed some obsolete config options (e.g. CONFIG_SERIAL_CONSOLE,
CONFIG_PC_KEYBOARD). Also, it's possible to create incorrect
configurations such as CONFIG_POWER3 and CONFIG_SPRUCE. Also, APUS
really deserves its own config file, and the "IBM 4xx options" menu
should be hidden if !CONFIG_4xx. A lot of configure help is also
missing, especially on embedded options. I figure these can be later
patches.

I forgot to mention that the patch was relative to linuxppc-2.5.

Here's another: briefly tested, seems to work.
