Please look at the code. You do not have to change this file. Just
provide a correct definition in your board config file.

Please do not meddle with global files.

"Only adding debug statements" may break a board as well, if you don't
know exactly what you are doing.

There is a little help in the README.

I really have no idea what you are talking about: there is not a
single reference to Yosemite (in whatever spelling) in the README.

And the make target is "yosemite_config", and has always been like
that.  If this is different for you, your source tree must be
seriously modified (read: messed up).
