I found that when running make oldnoconfig on the kconfig branch of
kbuild.git (which is currently a 2.6.35 + kconfig changes) against a
2.6.35-rc1 x86_64 defconfig, it mysteriously switches from
CONFIG_KERNEL_GZIP=y to CONFIG_KERNEL_LZO=y. With Kyle's patch it
doesn't do this. I applied the patch now.
