My local builds currently do 15 invocations of
    make ARCH=foo listnewconfig

and
    make ARCH=foo oldnoconfig

for six architectures (some once, others more often), even though I'm
only building for one of those architectures.

Apparently we're simply stuck with that minor annoyance. Did I get that
