I don't understand your comment. It's not a commented config variable causing the failure, it's the #undef. The script removes in-kernel 80211 code, and the #undef is part of it. ("#" is part of the line, not a comment.) If you answer "y" to the script, does ieee80211 still not compile?

As Thomas pointed out correctly, #undef isn't a config variable, it's C syntax.
