kernel 2.6.18 missing menuconfig options with slack* 10.2


Im trying to compile kernel 2.6.18 on slackintosh 10.2 ( its really just slack with a few changes for ppc). Everything works fine apart apart with the menu config there seem to be alot of recent changes missing. The one that really stood out to me is the lack of the bcm43xx driver that was put in from kernel 2.6.17-rc2. I got the kernel from kernel.org, it was liek this with a kernel i got recently and i got a fresh one today and it was the same. Could the menuconfig be effect by the age of the release, that would be really strange. Anybody got any ideas?

Do you have this on ?
Code:
Code maturity level options  --->
[*] Prompt for development and/or incomplete code/drivers
Otherwise post your .config
