We are Unix, you could even simply typeahead the next input, trusting
that all the steps before would have worked. ;-)

Recompiling an entire kernel also takes quite a few minutes on my
machine, that's why i've nuked the entire code to remove the old
compile directory out of /usr/src/usr.sbin/config/.

j@uriah 463% config -n SOMETHING
Warning: option -n is obsolete.
