Hm, I just tried this patch and I see a strange behaviour:

[dzu at pollux u-boot-testing (mao-rd-hor)]$ make -s sequoia
Configuring for sequoia board...
Configuring for sequoia board...

It is not obvious for me why I get this message twice - all I verified
is that both messages are definitely from stdout only.

Apart from that, I don't see a reason why this should not go in.
Currently I use "./MAKEALL <board>" for the same purpose btw.

Cheers
  Detlev
