BOARD_DIR, TEXT_BASE, LINK_SCRIPT and CONFIG_SCRIPT have no place in
the top level Makefile. Please move this to board specific
directories.

The normal entry for a board should consist of not more than

<name>_config:	unconfig
	@$(MKCONFIG) <name> ppc4xx xilinx <name>

or similar.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
