I'm on 6.1PreRelease and this works:

There was a minor tweek in this line back in 5.X transition form 4.X but my script works fine for 6.X since then.

Note that the problem isn't in the line you provided above that extracts the built-in configuration file. It's in the build procedure that's supposed to put the config file into the kernel in the first place. In other words, "options INCLUDE_CONFIG_FILE" doesn't include *all* the configuration data, because it doesn't include included configuration files. It's only including the very first level of nested configuration files, which is not an accurate representation of what's in the kernel.

In my example, the configuration file for GENERIC should've been in there somewhere, as well as anything included by GENERIC (such as the stuff in DEFAULTS).

Again, this used to work great, but appears to have been broken in favor of... usability?
