Subject: Sparc-64 kernel build fails on version.h during 'make oldconfig'

When 'bootstrapping' a new kernel:

cp ../oldlinux/.config .
make oldconfig
make dep
...
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/udf_fs_sb.h:22: linux/version.h: No such file
or directory


For some reason, include/linux/version.h  is not being built for this
procedure, however:
cp ../oldlinux/.config .
make menuconfig
make dep

works perfectly.

changing the Makefile rule for oldconfig thusly:

	oldconfig: /include/linux/version.h symlinks

makes it nice and peachy.

Is there a reason that this is not done? ( also, xconfig, config are the
same as oldconfig....)
