Hmmm. You could always build part of the input layer into the kernel 
unconditionally (like the old keyboard handling code?). Not nice on some 
embedded applications, though you could probably build an "input.o" that is a 
bit smaller.
Or a version of the "unconditional build" based on some setup determined after 
the config step.
I'm still looking for a better idea - got any?
