This patch (actually 01ab17887 in 2.6.36-rc1) reveals what looks like a
problem to me: make kernelrelease always regenerates
include/config/kernel.release even if it's already more recent than
include/config/auto.conf. Is this the expected behavior? Do we really
need include/config/kernel.release to depend on FORCE?
$ make kernelrelease -d
[...]

Successfully remade target file `FORCE'.
Finished prerequisites of target file `include/config/kernel.release'.
Prerequisite `include/config/auto.conf' is older than target `include/config/kernel.release'.
Prerequisite `FORCE' of target `include/config/kernel.release' does not exist.
