I see.
BTW, the name `enable' seems to be a misnomer -- `enable' implies that it
forces the depends to be y, but not that it also forces the _value_.
Why not have two:
enable FOO - forces the `depends' value of FOO to y
but it will still prompt
force FOO - forces both the `depends' and value of FOO to y
prompting for FOO is turned off
