[gentoo-user] make oldconfig ?

Hello, After copying the current ".config" to the newly linked sources (/usr/src/linux) I use to run 'make oldconfig'. Now, looking at the gentoo wiki [1] I see (2) choices but no 'make oldconfig':: 1) #make silentoldconfig 2) #make olddefconfig 3) #make oldconfig (3) still seems to work.
