Kernels/Arch Build System inaccuracy

After running the

asp

commands as mentioned, the trunk PKGBUILD file has changed and the wiki article does not reflect this.
Specifically, the PKGBUILD used to contain a list of kernel make options, like

make nconfig

however now it contains a small hard-coded script:

msg2 "Setting config..."
  cp ../config .config
  make olddefconfig

I changed my local version to the following so I could actually make correctly:

msg2 "Lets build the config..."
  zcat /proc/config.gz > .config
  make nconfig
  #make olddefconfig
  cp .config ../config

Does the wiki need to be changed or is this a problem with the asp command? I'm not new to Arch, but I am new to this change and to the wiki in general. Apologies if this question may seem stupid.

Re: Kernels/Arch Build System inaccuracy

The wiki page simply has not been updated to reflect the recent changes in the linux PKGBUILD.
