This tree seems to change the Makefile dependancies in the kconfig subdirectory such that a plain compile of the kernel leads to an attempt to build the menuconfig targets. This in turn adds a new dependancy on the curses development libraries.
What I see is that "make defconfig" builds _all_ *config targets -
strange...

Well it could be trying to build them all for me too, but as I don't have curses development libraries it would fail at that point. I don't think we want it to build the ones its not using. Thats daft :).

Hmmm, why does git pick up my hostname (mars)? Have I configured
somethign wrong (not in git but my gentoo system)?

I had to configure my local git repo:

git repo-config user.name 'Foo Bar'
git repo-config user.email 'foo@xxxxxxx'
