Yes, we definitely should use the same names whenever possible. For example 
for the architecture and cpu definitions, like CONFIG_405GP or CONFIG_4xx.

But I don't think that we really should aim to merge the configuration systems 
completely. This would go too far.

Hopefully not. But again, I don't think this should be our goal here.

Best regards,
Stefan
