Yet another major rework of the BusyBox config system, using the considerably modified Kbuild system I put into uClibc. With this, there should be no more need to modify Rules.mak since I've moved all the interesting options into the config system. I think I've got everything updated, but you never know, I may have made some mistakes, so watch closely. -Erik

By adding module symbols to the kernel symbol table, Oops messages
occuring within kernel modules can be properly debugged. By enabling
this feature, module symbols will always be added to the kernel symbol
table for properly debugging support. If you are not interested in
Oops messages from kernel modules, say N.

This is a special uClinux only memory optimization that lets insmod
load the specified kernel module directly into kernel space, reducing
memory usage by preventing the need for two copies of the module
being loaded into memory.
