Not so strange. I think there has to be a .config file in order
for the patches to work. A clean kernel tree, especially after
doing mrproper, contains no .config file in /usr/src/linux. I
think most of us are so used to copying one there from some other
safe location before running checkout that we don't encounter
what Jeff has encountered.
