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.
