Select the profile and then fixup the config the normal way.

If what the admin wants is incompatible with the profile, admin doesn't

Thats ugly - "distro except..." is a standard thing you ask users to do
for debugging.

However providing you separate the initial profile from the later tools
it simply becomes

make distroconfig
        [cp /etc/system-kconfig(.$ARCH?) .config
         make oldconfig]

make menuconfig (if you want to customise)

In addition the make oldconfig means you can ship a deliberately
incomplete distroconfig and get the user asked some bits.

exactly what I was fumbling to describe, thanks.
