What busybox config? `equery files busybox` doesn't show any config
files for busybox.  I found the previous thread here
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=gentoo-user&m=112127857419654&w=2 and
Zac suggested some different options:

but that didn't help either.

And why do I need to do a `busybox --install` ?? shouldn't this come up
in some emerge warning or be done by genkernel or something? I monitor
all the output from emerge with enotice, but I didn't see anything about
busybox...

TIA,
