I did some work in this area, as several system administrators I've met also seem to have problem with kernel configuration recovery. In my case I came with a method of obtaining a configuration of a running kernel via sysctl (kern.conftxt for now) and via config(8) form the kernel file. Hopefully this work will get more review soon. Thanks, -- Wojciech A.
