If it were that simple to print the location, I had done it already. :)
Try this:

config FOO
        bool
        select BAR
        depends on BAR

config BAR
        bool

I looked into this before, for simple properties one could just remember 
the last checked property via a static variable. The problem are the 
selects which are checked before that loop, here the information from 
where they were selected is not available anymore (at least not easily).
