This is what I extracted from the email that came back from this list, I  
think you made a mistake somewhere:

# BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_2_6_31 is not set
BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_VERSION=y
# BR2_KERNEL_HEADERS_SNAP is not set
BR2_DEFAULT_KERNEL_VERSION="2.6.27.10"
BR2_DEFAULT_KERNEL_HEADERS="2.6.27.10"

AFAIK .config should be the right config file,
sequence was as follows:

download and unpack
make xconfig
manually specify kernel version (matches the already patched kernel I had  
lying about)
exit config
make

OK.

Some time back, I remember hearing that 2.6.27 was the branch that was to  
be maintained for XScale PXA. Is this correct, or are all XScale oddities  
handled in later kernel versions?
