I thought that since you might have updated the toolchain it
might make a
difference, and I have had to adjust some of the mk
variables when building
the system or kernels as opposed to building packages, but I
use build.sh to
config and build kernels and the system. You are probably
right that those
variables don't matter when you run config manually to
configure a kernel.
