Assuming you are on an x86 box...
make allyesconfig will give you a config for same OS bit-size as you run. make ARCH=i386 allyesconfig gives you a 32 bit config make ARCH=x86_64 allyesconfig gives you a 64 bit config make ARCH=x86 allyesconfig gives you a 32 bit config where you can select 64 bit. It was seen as the best solution when unifying 32 and 64 bit stuff and introducing support for ARCH=x86. No-one has complained until now so most people seems to get it or maybe they are just silent.
