 BB_ isn't bad, and it's vaguely greppable.  And we've got FEATURE_ all over 
the place already (CONFIG_FEATURE became ENABLE_FEATURE_...)

However: the fundamental question is: for 1.1 do we want to rip out all the 
CONFIG_ symbols, have bb_config.h stop including #config.h, and do a 
transition over fixing up all the #ifdefs that break to use the new 1 or 0 
symbols instead of #ifdef/#undef?

If you're worried about namespace pollution, we're going to have to have a big 
cleanup patch at some point...
