once I have a working config -- say one for a target (minimal build) and 
one for analysis (more but not all features -- eg., no gtk) I never see 
auto-probing again. At best some new feature (config) comes along and 
the config has to be updated again, but kconf only inquires about new 
features.

By default there is no config. Autoprobing generates a first one or a 
user can specify a defconfig.
