The compression was also for the .config but probably the code for
compression it' s the think that hurt ;-). At least the .config and the
patch list data should be swapped out as default (if doing this won' t
hurt again more than the data in question itself).

I know but I don' t think this is very important (at least for me). I have
a file called ADDITIONAL_KERNEL_PATCH in /root that just do that function
for me and it said me the pathname of the patch I applyed to my current
kernel tree. Teorically we can patch the script kernel-patch to take
memory of the patch applyed to the kernel.
Make it a config option and I will agree with you.
