After all this combinatorics I still do not know an answer to a simple
question. With the current system I can do
grep -v '^#' .config > config.stripped
copy 'config.stripped' back to .config, type 'make oldconfig' and hold
<Return> for a while to get my old .config back. This is actually
very useful, and used every day, although maybe not precisely in the
manner as above. :-)
So, the question is: can I do something something like that with CML2?
If the answer is "no" then something is very seriously missing and no
references to halting problems can cover that. If, OTOH, the answer
is "yes" then what is a big trouble?
