On a related note, perhaps the arch settings should be split to their 
own files, eg common_x86_64, common_i686 and so on that the defconfig 
files then include. That should eliminate things like missing 
CONFIG_RTE_ARCH_64 fairly effectively, and further reduce the 
duplication in the configs.

I can send a patch to do that once the dust from the common_base move 
settles if you like the idea.
