I would like to point out another thing that bothers me here: Whenever I take the most up to date version of U-Boot, I need to perform a merge on MAKEALL, as my local version includes the names of all my custom boards. I guess I'm not the only one bothered by this. I suggest that each processor family line in MAKEALL will hold an additional "external boards" variable, which will hold a list of all the external boards (for this family). The value of this variable should be achieved from an "external boards" makefile, included by MAKEALL. This file is obviously empty in the U-boot repository, and filled with one's own custom boards elsewhere.
What is an "external board"? I don;t understand the concept.
May I instead recommend that you submit your stuff for inclusion in the public tree?
