What about making offset.h to depend on $(TOPDIR)/.config?

This may cause unneccessary rebuilds of objects depending on offset.h after
configuration changes but it forces offset.h to be rebuilt when CONFIG_SMP is
toggled.

For example:
--- Makefile.old        Thu May 25 19:05:08 2000
+++ Makefile    Thu May 25 19:08:48 2000
@@ -18,7 +18,7 @@
 offset.h: offset.s
        sed -n '/^@@@/s///p' $^ >$@
 
-offset.s: offset.c
+offset.s: offset.c $(TOPDIR)/.config
 
 clean:
        rm -f offset.[hs] $(TARGET).new
