Why not set up an automated script that does the following:

1) set makefile to UP
2) set all kernel build options to compile everything into the kernel
3) make clean ; make dep ; make bzlilo && make modules
5) set all kernel build options to compile everything as modules
6) make clean; make dep ; make bzlilo && make modules
7) set all your favourite kernel options
8) make clean; make dep ; make bzlilo && make modules
4) set makefile to SMP
5) Repeat steps 2 to 8.

Run through that script, and I'm sure it should pretty much catch anything
that's missing. How's that?

Cheers,
Alex
