Fedora doesn't have it... their packaging system drops a copy of the
.config in /boot instead.  One has to be careful about having excessive
self-respect :-)

Likewise, we provide the packaging config for stable with our git tree
as Sander points out.  If there's any deviation from that in actual
packaging, I am sure Mickey will provide patches...
