Building kernel on 1.0 - problems

I've built the kernel before on i386, but with Aurora 1.0 I'm having 
difficulties right from the start with "make xconfig"

When selecting "Save and Exit" from xconfig, I get the following errors:

ERROR - Attempting to write value for unconfigured variable 
(CONFIG_FONT_SUN8x16).
ERROR - Attempting to write value for unconfigured variable 
(CONFIG_FBCON_FONTS).
ERROR - Attempting to write value for unconfigured variable 
(CONFIG_SCSI_FCAL).

I even get the same errors if I use xconfing and load the configuration 
file in configs/kernel-2.4.20-sparc.config

Now I do see that 2 of these variables are set in the 
kernel-2.4.20-sparc.config file if I don't use it in xconfig.  So why is 
xconfig not setting them in the file it writes?

Can someone please give advice as to what I'm doing wrong
