You know what the kernel needs? An lsmod equivalent that shows what IS built in. If I selected Serial as a module, then "serial.o" will be loadable and shows up in lsmod. From experience, I know what shows up in dmesg when I load serial.o, so on another machine with Serial built in to the kernel, the line or two that goes by at boot about Serial drivers is the same signature and so I can infer "serial is built in" But we often ask each other questions like "do you have eepro100.o loaded"... when asking about support, and run into the builtin vs module thing. lsmod -b for built in would be amazing.
