The resulting binary packages should be functionally identical. I see -- thanks for the details Ben. Some news related to this: the other day I needed the kernel config in the procedural macros in order to do conditional compilation based on the compilers features/version (which is how we usually do it in the rest of the code), which may land on v6.16 or v6.17.
