    Alan sent my ikconfig patch to Linus a couple of days ago and it's
    in 2.6.0-test-current ... except for the Kconfig part of it,
    which Alan or I will send soon (if Alan hasn't already done so).

    The full was (which is partially merged) is at
      http://developer.osdl.org/rddunlap/patches/ikconfig/ikconfig_260c.patch
    It includes a script (extract-ikconfig) and a small C program
    (binoffsets.c) that are used to extract the saved .config image.

    The .config file is also available in /proc as a CONFIG option.
