Just copy your .config's somewhere else and copy them in place
whenever you want to build that configuration. This is pretty much
what the make <project>_defconfig make target does.
Also have a look at the make O=</path/to/build/in> support.
E.G. something like:
for project in projectA projectB projectC;
do
cp configs/$project .config
yes ''|make oldconfig
make O=/tmp/build/$project
done
(the yes '' part is to accept the defaults for new configuration
options)
