	See below.

>Description:

	config(8) fails to properly configure drivers which name ends
	in digits:

	A line in the kernel config file:

		pseudo-device   bisdnq921

	together with the line:

		bisdn/bisdn_rxframe.c   optional bisdnq921      device-driver

	results in in a file bisdnq921.h in the compile directory which has
	the contents:

		#define NBISDNQ921 0

	Replacing the trailing digits "921" in the driver name(s) with 
	charcters results in the correct contents:

		#define NBISDN<ANY CHARS> 1


>How-To-Repeat:

	See above.

>Fix:
	
	Unknown.
