I'm afraid not:

$ ./scripts/Download -list-missing | wc -l
3279
$ head config/default/config
#
# T2 7.0-stable Config File
#
export SDECFG_TARGET='generic'
export SDECFG_PKGSEL_TPL='minimal'
export SDECFG_IMAGE='install'
export SDECFG_ARCH='x86'
export SDECFG_X86_OPT='pentium4'

So, how do I, for example, choose sysvinit instead?  Would
./scripts/Build-Target sysvinit bypass the building of initrd and its
dependencies or do I have to do something else?  And if I wanted to say,
use FSF binutils instead of the kernel.org package, would I have to
write my own package description?
