Ok, I found the problem.  xconfig doesn't bother to parse sub menus.  So what
was killing it was dep_bool 'Some OF proc thing' CONFIG_SOMETHING
$CONFIG_FS_PROC, because CONFIG_FS_PROC is in fs/Config.in, which doesn't get
parsed until you click on the button(!).  I just fixed this in 2_5, by moving
the questions to fs/Config.in.  But I don't know if this will be blessed in
the end.
