Then it would be much harder to run NetBSD on some machines where
disabling pci cards in a notebook case saves a lot of space.
And no, you (I don't mean Antti) don't need to tell me to buy a
bigger memory module.

Splitting out the GENERIC kernel config makes it not easier to track
what was added, because you now need to track a few more files after
a cvs update.
Right now I include the GENERIC kernel and disable deivces, where
I have a copy of the GENERIC file to compare it after the cvs update
is done.
