    To be defined where? Do we assume everyone will #include
    <linux/module.h> or something? Or #include <linux/external.h>? It
    seems a little absurd, since the whole file would be something like

      #define MAKEFILE_LINE(foo...)
      #define CONFIG_LINE(foo...)
      #define CONFIG_HELP_LINE(foo...)

    (Of course you'd probably use something other than CONFIG_LINE because
    that would needlessly confuse mkdep.c and checkconfig.pl.)
