    The Kconfig files on these architectures had the interesting "feature"
    that both KCORE_AOUT and KCORE_ELF were enabled unconditionally...

    Besides, I always consider the defconfig files as some kinds of
    generated files and since they only give default answers for
    "make defconfig" I didn't see the big need for manually editing every
    single defconfig file.
