If anyone is interested I have already made a perl script that produces assembler offsets from structure members.
It doesn't need to run native since it reads the header files, extract the structures and by using objdump calculates the offsets automatically.
BTW, I assume you have already taken a look at how we do this on Sparc64. See arch/sparc64/kernel/check_asm.sh and the "check_asm" target in arch/sparc64/kernel/Makefile
It also works in all cross-compilation etc. environments. And I bet it would work on every platform with very minimal changes, if any.
