What the config default is, is unimportant. It only maters to kernel
hackers that build our own kernels. What's important is what distros do.

On debian testing I have in config-3.0.0-1-amd64:

CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE=y


Although it is not set on the latest fedora 16 config.

Someone should tell debian to turn it off.
