Caveats first:

I know the package I'm referring to is from the aur -- the linux-pf
kernel.
I'm asking here rather than file a needless bug report for someone to have
to squash.
I also realize not everyone's whims can be considered or satisfied and
don't expect such.

However since the pkgbuild is crafted from the mainline pkgbuild this
trivial change would, imho, make the pkgbuild more flexible. Below is the
section I'm referring to.

  # http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/11194
   mkdir -p "${pkgdir}/usr/src/linux-${_kernver}/include/config/dvb/"
   cp include/config/dvb/*.h
"${pkgdir}/usr/src/linux-${_kernver}/include/config/dvb/"

I understand the need for this as the main kernel builds the modules but
would like to request one small change.

  # http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/11194
   mkdir -p "${pkgdir}/usr/src/linux-${_kernver}/include/config/dvb/"
   if [ -a include/config/dvb/*.h ] ; then
      cp include/config/dvb/*.h
"${pkgdir}/usr/src/linux-${_kernver}/include/config/dvb/"
   fi

This allows one to build the kernel without having to build the dvb
modules
if they are not required. My build went fine so I think my bash is
correct,
but I haven't tested it with the dvb modules being built.

What about posting it as a comment on the AUR page or as a reply on the
linux-pf forum thread [1] as they seem a better place for that kind of
request?

i thought the op meant to suggest this change to the repo linux
package to ease all possible abs rebuilds.

This type of thing has always been a pain for me with a custom .config.
