So am I right that one should be able to not edit linux/net/ipsec/defconfig
or packaging/linus/config-all.h, and do:

cd openswan-2.x.y
cp packaging/linus/config-all.h myconf.h
[edit myconf.h]
export KERNELSRC=/usr/src/kernels/linux-a.y.z/
make MODULE_DEF_INCLUDE=/path/to/openswan-2.x.y/myconf.h module

It seems that just worked for me (though the results were not pretty :)
