Description John Mylchreest 2002-07-18 04:41:49 UTC 
When compiling the .config into the kernel image. gentoo supply scripts to get 
the config back out, but not the binoffset binary, required to do the job.

the .c or the binary itself should ideally already be supplied.

mjc: should we make an ebuild for binoffset, or add the source to the kernel
