My point was after running make menuconfig you can compare the config file for anything that might have changed since the configuration file has a habit of changing as config options in the kernel change also.
Haven though about it you could drop the original somewhere then copy it into the new kernel tree as needed, then run make menuconfig and exit saving if asked to. You can simply diff the newly saved one with the original copy to see any changes / differences.
