Odd, don't ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE get saved in the .config?

What *are* you trying to pass to kbuild that isn't either saved in the .config
or deduced at build time (the cross-compile gets saved, stuff like "where is
python?" is deduced).  Is there a *real* problem you're hitting here, or is
it merely theoretical?
