1 I hope this is going to be binary package manager friendly.
2 In Sabayon for instance, kernel sources are not even installed and at
3 the same time, /proc/config.gz may not even be available.
4 There were some corner cases in where pkg_setup failed because this
5 kernel config check stuff was trying to be "smarter" than the user.
