Thomas,

Ten years ago the user did 
genkernel all 
and used the default .config provided with genkernel.

Today, genkernel --kernel-config=/proc/config.gz all does not improve 
that config.

genkernel --kernel-config=/proc/config.gz all 
perpetuates the existing .config which is only useful if its not an 
earlier generic configuration.
