What information does localmodconfig need? A list of config options and
their computed dependencies and a flag for each option if it has prompt,
anything else? So a scripts/kconfig/conf --dump-kconfig that would
produce such flat list should suffice, without the complexity of having
to build a perl binding first (and would be usable from bash/awk/python
scripts as well). What do you think?
