Hi Scott,
Reference:
<http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/29858/focus=29903>
I also saw that recently and came to the same conclusion. It is due to
a very naive command configuration - taking "all" and then subtracting
the undesired ones. The problem is, whenever someone adds a command
that is incompatible, the build breaks for that board.
Jon (jdl) has a New Improved command configuration mechanism that will
solve the world's woes, except for that one. I intend to submit a patch
after Jon's patches were pulled into the mainline (unless someone beat
me to it).
Best regards,
gvb
