I think we all agree by now that we need a way to warn about missing
CONFIG_ options in addition to the current implementation. Now we just
need someone to implement it, and have the affected ebuilds changed
accordingly.

What about the other issue which was brought up? Ebuilds enheriting
linux-info.eclass requires a configured kernel source? Personally, I
don't see anything wrong with that, if the above solution is
implemented (non-fatal checks remain non-fatal). Releng,
cross-compilers - what are your thoughts on this?
