I would like to suggest splitting Config.h into two parts.  The 
problem I ran into may have been related to using an old 
configuration file when I should have been using a new one.  I've 
been using old configuration files to retain my settings, and the 
new BB_*_INSMOD_* settings were messed up.

If we could split a section off which would contain only program 
selections (BB_RM, BB_CP_MV, etc...) - in the current Config.h 
this is labeled top and bottom as the Applications list.  If we could 
separate this out somehow, it would be helpful, though it does 
necessitate using two different files to configure.  Perhaps you 
could optionally include a file from "outside" the standard Config.h - 
like so:

#include "apps.h"

#ifndef APPS_H
[....application list....]
#endif

Would this work?  Or would "apps.h" generate an error if missing?
