I think one thing to note is that dependencies is that if you are smart about it, dependencies -really- do not even change when your .config changes.
What about a system where Linus runs "make deps" -once- before he releases a tarball. This in turn generates dependency information (perhaps not in purely make format) which includes 'ifdef CONFIG_xxx' information embedded within. We know that make can support ifeq CONFIG_xxx for example...
