BTW, here's the info I got from ESR concerning my dilemma. I should have
a patch up sometime today.

OK, what you need to do is add some declarations to the symbols.cml
file.
One for each new symbol, specifying prompt text for it.
There is a temporary issue with which file(s) should be patched.
Presently the actual symbols.cml file in the kernel tree is generated
at CML2 installation time from a symbols.cml template and the
Configure.help file, both supplied by the CML2 distribution. After
CML2 is merged into the 2.5 tree this will no longer be the case; you'll
patch the kernel-tree symbols.cml file directly.
Right now, you have a choice of patching the either the distributed CML2
files
or the kernel-tree files after CML2 installation.
