David's poop sheet says you should only run mrproper when something major 
has changed.  I only run it once - when I set up for a new kernel 
release.   And dep isn't used anymore.

I now have the kernel running with the only problem being that I can't 
get the aic7xxx code to compile.  This was also a problem in the 2.4.22 
code.
