I did not have a concrete idea in mind when I wrote the lamentation, just 
a recollection of being annoyed when the documentation for using config(8) 
to build a kernel was removed.  I was not particularly thinking about it 
having been in the main handbook versus the developer's handbook.

For what it's worth, it looks like danger moved the documentation from the 
handbook to the developer's handbook in r28876 (Oct 16 2006).
