No, right now this list isn't but so big, but it will grow as more drivers are
added.  To see the current list, look at /usr/src/release/scripts/dokern.sh at
the non-SMALL i386 floppy.  That is a sed script that trims drivers and options
out of GENERIC to create the kernel on kern.flp and boot.flp.
