Sam,
I am doing sparse runs now on all of linus' and andrew's kernels. Since sparse is changing along with the kernel, comparing to older versions will not buy us much right now. As sparse stabalizes, perhaps this would be an option.
For the sparse runs, I am building with allmodconfig (bzImage and modules).
