I was thinking about running it through a current busybox build to bring the old config up to date.

Some other configuration options are:

make oldconfig - Update an old .config file for a newer version of Busybox.

Thoughts on that welcomed.

EDIT:

Old version

BusyBox is a multi-call binary that combines many common Unix
utilities into a single executable. Most people will create a
link to busybox for each function they wish to use and BusyBox
will act like whatever it was invoked as!
