So please - help test the new code, and report any problems / post remaining fixes within the next few days.
I don't know why, but commit de109d909707e2dfe806be5efc3cdb103b47c8ad "Makefile: fix parallel builds" results in a "bricked" Openmoko GTA01/Neo1973 device (screen doesn't turn on and nothing is written to the debug-board serial console when the power button is pressed). I posted a message about this to the Openmoko kernel list a few days ago but so far I have not seen any followups there, so I thought I should mention it here as well.
This issue will not affect most users, since the "standard" build of Openmoko is using an earlier upstream tag for u-boot. Also note that Openmoko applies its own series of patches on top of the u-boot git tree (but I don't know much about those patches as I'm only a community member, not one of the core developers).
