Subject: typo in crypto kconfig ?

While configuring the kernel v2.6.35-3797-gfc1caf6 I read this :

...
Cryptographic API (CRYPTO) [Y/m/?] y
*
* Crypto core or helper
*
Cryptographic algorithm manager (CRYPTO_MANAGER) [M/y/?] m
Run algolithms' self-tests (CRYPTO_MANAGER_TESTS) [Y/n/?] (NEW)

and wonder now whether it should be spelled "algorithm" instead ?

Yes, that's simply a typo, it should be "algorithm" of course.
