I tried it before sending the patch... and worked:

$ ./config /tmp
config: cannot read /tmp: Inappropriate file type or format
$ cp /s/src/sys/arch/i386/conf/GENERIC /tmp                                    
$ ./config -s /s/src/sys -b /tmp/build /tmp/GENERIC
Don't forget to run "make depend"
$ ( cd /tmp && ln -s GENERIC SYMLINK )
$ ./config -s /s/src/sys -b /tmp/build2 /tmp/SYMLINK
Don't forget to run "make depend"
$ ls -l /tmp/GENERIC /tmp/SYMLINK
-rw-r--r--  1 jmmv  wheel  36888 Oct 23 21:09 /tmp/GENERIC
lrwxr-xr-x  1 jmmv  wheel      7 Oct 23 21:10 /tmp/SYMLINK -> GENERIC
