On others, it fails to build. I believe all of the Linux targets suffer from this bug. That might be considered an OK limitation for Linux targets. But if we're going to have a config listed in the MAINTAINERS list so we can use it to verify that global changes don't break builds, we have to ensure that those configs build on all hosts. --jtc -- J.T.
