I've been using this script for some time to build kernels with.  I
thought I'd share it with anyone else who'd like an automated way of
doing kernel builds.  It might also be handy for those times when you
get into a dueling match with someone on the amount of time your
machine takes to build a kernel versus his... "was that with a make
depend, or without on that time?"  Use "time doconfig SUN_LAMP" or
something similar.  Anyway, here it is...
