After googling UIDGID_CONVERTED I found this: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-7215718.html Apparently, I'm not the only one with this issue. So, I searched for UIDGID_CONVERTED in menuconfig and only see it as a bool and no dependency. However, if I: echo "CONFIG_UIDGID_CONVERTED=y" >> .config and then make menuconfig, this goes away as well - so I'm guessing this has dependencies I haven't found. Though, I grep that option in the kernel source tree and I only see two things that are documented as "depends on" it and the listing for the option - I see nothing that uses it.
