  for the sake of experimentation, i want to build a kernel for my
x86_64 version of f11 using the current /boot/config file and the
current "git pull" of the kernel source tree.  anyone know any reason
why that might be a hideously bad idea?  obviously, i'll keep the
working version around, but i was just wondering if anyone had tried
this and run into any show-stopper issues.  thanks.
