Sorry to keep replying to my own posts here, but I think I may have 
figured out something of interest. For a second I thought everything was 
going to work, until I realized I'd left off ARCH=xen this time. make 
oldconfig did exactly what I thought it should. It only asked me a very 
few questions, which I assumed were from missing entries in the config 
file, but that's when I realized I'd left off the ARCH argument. This is 
the point in the documentation when it says it should ask you just a few 
questions about Xen stuff, to which you should leave the defaults. Well 
it did ask those questions, but it also seemed to completely ignore the 
.config file altogether. Just thought that may shed some light on the 
subject.

Again, thanks for putting up with me ;)
