I think we're missing each others point. So, lemme put it this way:

We have CPU X, which uses sequence of commands, sequence A.
We have CPU Y, which uses sequence of commands, sequence B.

We want make target M, which results in file named F.

How do we make sure the target M will result in file F produced by sequence A if 
u-boot is configured for CPU X && file F produced by sequence B if u-boot is 
configured for CPU Y ?

I think I might have already answered myself ... u-boot is configured for CPU 
X/CPU Y, right?
