Build error on ICS, fixed, but why?

[StefanS]

Hi,

yesterday I started to look into ICS, so I sync'd the ics-x86 branch and ported my device config from gingerbread. I ran into an error where I couldn't build the kernel because it kept saying "zconf.hash.c: File not found", just as it is described in this post: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/android-x86/WTnHkHAZVIM/cMfKRFzeFD4J
After looking for a solution for a long time, I couldn't find one - only people who were giving more or less helpful advice.

But eventually I digged into the Makefiles and when I had set
LKC_GENPARSER := 1
in kernel/scripts/kconfig/Makefile, everything worked. (The line was commented out).

All I did was repo sync and make - why did I have this problem? Would it be ok if this change was made in the git repo?

"there may be some out of sync between
my tree and the published one.
I'm investigating... "

I did a complete new sync on 7-jan-12 and haven't see an issue with
any
builds...
