The compiled version of this package is called "kernel". I'm pretty
sure it's part of the base distribution. :)
My guess is you're looking for a .config file? You can find them (one
for each kernel variant) in the /usr/src/linux-2.6.whatever/configs
directory. Copy one to .config in the source directory and do a "make
oldconfig".
