list patches in kernel

[Brad Tilley]

Is there an easy way to make a running kernel display how it has been
patched from vanilla? Probably not, but I thought I'd ask.

Thanks,

Brad

This issue does come up every so often. If you look in the archives you
should find some info about this, including a patch if my memory is
correct.

I provided a patch some time ago (search google groups for "kernel .patches 
support"), that works like the config.gz in /proc. But the majority didn't 
like it...
