[script deleted]

OK, I see what you mean (I can reproduce it), but I don't see how it
happens.  It looks like, from drivers/usb/gadget/Kconfig:

#
# USB Gadget Drivers
#
choice
	tristate "USB Gadget Drivers"
	depends on USB_GADGET && USB_GADGET_SELECTED
	default USB_ETH

none of the choices inside this choice block was enabled by the randconfig.

Anybody in linux-kbuild land see how that can happen?

Zimny, one way that you can work around this is to run:

$ yes '' | make

or
$ yes '' | make oldconfig
after the 'make randconfig'.  That sets the unknown kconfig symbol(s) to their
default values.
