Adrian already commented on this.  Let me just add that these above
changes are in so far *totally wrong* as they remove the "depends on
XYZ" which is implied by "select XYZ".

Remember, "select" is like "depends on", just with the added twist that
the 'make snafuconfig' scripts are instructed to (a) not hide the
depending option from the user and (b) try to enable the dependency for
the user if he tries to enable the depending option.
