You are refering to this WIP patch:

http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/86236

It makes the fw_env tool Makefile similar to the imls Makefile and
solves the errno inclusion problem reported by Detlev.

I still think we need a third set of CC, CFLAGS, SRCS, etc defines for
compiling tools running on the target. However, we probably can default
to the combination CC+HOSTCFLAGS for most platforms.

Best regards,
Daniel
