This is what I thought - so copying my old config over should work:

# cd /usr/src/linux
# ls -a
./                     .config.old       .tmp_vmlinux2*  Makefilee       fs/    
   patches.txt
../                    .tmp_System.map   .version        Module.symvers  
include/  scripts/
..tmp_kallsyms1.o.cmd  .tmp_kallsyms1.S  .vmlinux.cmd    README          init/  
   security/
..tmp_kallsyms2.o.cmd  .tmp_kallsyms1.o  COPYING         REPORTING-BUGS  ipc/   
   sound/
..tmp_vmlinux1.cmd     .tmp_kallsyms2.S  CREDITS         System.map

.config.cmd            .tmp_vmlinux1*    Makefile        drivers/        net/
# cp /boot/config-2.6.9-gentoo-r1 .config
cp: overwrite `.config'? y
# make oldconfig
Missing }.
# make menuconfig

As you can see, no config targets work at all.
