Correct.

http://pastebin.com/rkRSL2d3 has it now.  It's a little clumsy at times,
for example for not-arm (biased, sorry) you need to do uboot-build.sh
--arch powerpc --eldk-521 --cpu mpc85xx so that it sets up for arch/powerpc,
and then the toolchain and then re-sets itself for cpu/mpc85xx.
arch/cpu/soc default to NCPUS=1 NBUILDS=`grep -c processor
/proc/cpuinfo` and single board targets default to letting MAKEALL guess
right.  I'm pretty sure that even on the bigger boxes this is still
right.
