Err, what? How do you "omit an opt_foo.h file"? - that is a fatal error and has been for a while. If you try and add 'options INCORRECTOPTION' to your config file, it makes you either fix it or add it to an opt_* file explicitly. Nothing more than a 'make clean' should ever be needed in a worst case.
