Ah! What you have there is a gotcha in the current Debian kernel-building documentation. Most dists put a .config in the linux directory that reflects the options used to build the distributed kernel. Debian doesn't. However, you can get it from /boot/config-2.2.17 (if you are running Potato). Copy that file to /usr/src/linux/.config before running make menuconfig or make xconfig.
In your situation, I think the make-kpkg routine puts the new config in the /boot dir. The old one will be available as /boot/config-2.2.17.bak.
