defconfig is special case (like all{yes,no,mod}config). They basically
set all options to a new value and print out the new config.
oldconfig could be less verbose and actually there is already a less
verbose mode. If you skip the oldconfig step, the config tool is called
anyway and checks the configuration and only asks as necessary. The same
mode could be used for oldconfig, but I didn't want to change the
behaviour needlessly. OTOH for oldconfig it should be no problem to call
conf with '-s' instead of '-o' for the KBUILD_VERBOSE=0 case.

Um, my gcc doesn't produce any "error:" prefix.
