In addition to keeping them outside, I name config files like

    /u/sysconf/KERNCONF -> k11oct02a
    /u/sysconf/LINT -> LINT.4_7R.10oct02
    /u/sysconf/LINT.4_7R.10oct02
    /u/sysconf/k02sep02a
    /u/sysconf/k02sep02b
    /u/sysconf/k11oct02a

so I can easily identify the version of the LINT and KERNCONF files 
and so my Xemacs menu can always point to LINT and KERNCONF and so I
can tag old /kernel and /modules with the same suffix as the config
file with which they were made.
