Just .config is enough. In order to reconfigure a virgin kernel
source tree from an existing .config file you just copy this file into
the virgin source tree and do "make oldconfig" (thus avoiding the
interactive dialogs). This is the way I do it for quite some time now
- I don't have to care about leaving old kernel sources around - all I
have to save is the .config file.
As for checking on a kernel binary, last time I heard they were
working on it for the newer kernels. Maybe you'll find something at
http://www.linuxhq.com (they keep an up-to-date stock of all kernel
official *and unofficial* patches).
