Does it fail or does it segfault?

I think I'll need to try reproducing this. I'm not aware of a
problem with make xconfig that would cause GCC to produce a
segmentation fault. If it does, that is a bug in the compiler and
should be reported. I only know that make xconfig is a bit more
likely to create non-working kernel config files because it is not
as up-to-date as make menuconfig. There's at least one bug report
about it, related to the zlib module I think, where you would end
with missing symbols at the end.
