This should roughly work.  However, I think one can already provide
their own config file with something like:

  (define-public my-own-linux-libre
    (package
      (inherit linux-libre)
      (native-inputs
        `(("kconfig" ,(local-file "./my-kernel.conf"))
          ,@(alist-delete "kconfig" (package-native-inputs linux-libre))))))

=E2=80=A6 which can be dropped in a file in $GUIX_PACKAGE_PATH.

It remains somewhat inconvenient, though.

WDYT?
