I'm interested in building my own kernels for my Galaxy Nexus (LTE). I'm familiar with configuring and building kernels in linux. I've been through Google's documentation at Building the System | Android Open Source, and have successfully built using the device configuration from 'lunch full_toro-userdebug'. I'm just wondering how close this kernel config is to the one that shipped with my device. I'd like to start from the stock kernel config so I don't miss out on any optimizations. I wasn't able to find a /proc/config.gz on the phone, nor could I extract it from the yakju-icl53f-factory-89fccaac.tgz factory image with extract-ikconfig. Has anyone released an official .config for this device, or is 'lunch full_toro-userdebug' the best place to start?

You're looking in the wrong place for the kernel source and def config. I'm on the road right now, but check the android-building mailing list. Or I'll reply again when i get settled.
Thanks gnarlyc. I was able to find the sources and default configuration with: git clone https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/omap.git make defconfig tuna_defconfig
This worked for me.
git clone https://android.googlesource.com/kernel/omap.git
git checkout android-omap-tuna-3.0-mr0.1
make tuna_defconfig
make menuconfig (optional to tweak)
make -j8
I have a booting kernel now! Yay.
