Hi,

I do automated (cron) randconfigs nightly and occasionally I run a script
that builds a kernel with each one of these options disabled (although
lately CONFIG_PM is not being disabled, but I'll fix that one day):

BLOCK HOTPLUG INET INPUT MAGIC_SYSRQ NET PCI PM PROC_FS SMP SYSFS

Hm, I should add SYSCTL (and/or PROC_SYSCTL) to that list.  It often has issues.
