Have you tried removing the 'makeoptions' line and using 'config -g
<KERNCONF>' instead?
That's how I build my debug kernels, and that worked fine last time I did
it (last week or so).
Also, when you copy the GENERIC file to another name, do you update the
ident line?
This should normally not matter but you never know with debugging kernels.
In both cases you would need to examine the config utility.
