And that's patched out on the build that actually ships with the beaglebone and beaglebone black so it will fall back to BBB when it can't ID the board. You'll see that the u-boot bits that need the ID for the xM also fallback to the latest rev. I don't see why the boardfile and script need to have different behaviour.
