I don't know for sure. It seems like a good idea for it to be saved,
but on the other hand, I don't remember seeing anything in the boot
sequence that said something like "restoring kernel parameters". In
any event, you can always just put an "echo number >
/proc/sys/fs/file-max" at the end of rc.local. (That would be easier
than remembering to change it in the kernel source each time you
built a kernel.)
