You'd want configs for each project that that set of Makefiles can build. As one example.
I'm not sure I follow this example. Are you suggesting having a project that is made up of Makefiles and references other projects that those makefiles can build? Either I'm not understanding that (which is likely since I haven't slept nearly enough this week) or it seems a little contrived.
The way I imagine this stuff being most used is in a project that makes use of a library type project. I've got a C-based application that pulls in a couple other C-based projects, for example. I don't see why I'd need to have more than one set of configs in a single branch pulling in different sets of sub-projects. Shouldn't a single sub-project set definition be adequate for any given branch of a project?
