afaik with kernel-package you need to:
# cd /usr/src/linux
# cp .config ../oldconfig
# make-kpkg clean
# cp ../oldconfig .config
# make menuconfig <and add in the new options>
# make-kpkg --revision <increment revision by .1> binary
it's annoying, but i don't know of any way to do this without running
'clean' first. if anyone else does, i'd love to know!
