Hello Wolfgang


You deleted the EP88x entry in boards.cfg
at the following commit


commit 1b0757eceddf037aad99ab59217a3a5c215e15d1
Author: Wolfgang Denk <wd at denx.de>
Date:   Wed Oct 24 02:36:15 2012 +0000

    PPC: remove dead boards (AMX860, c2mon, ETX094, IAD210, LANTEC, SCM)
    
    These boards have long reached EOL, and there has been no indication
    of any active users of such hardware for years.  Get rid of the dead
    weight.

You only mentioned about AMX860, c2mon, ETX094, IAD210, LANTEC, SCM in commit log.
But you also deleted EP88x.


I suspect you accidentally deleted the entry of EP88x in boards.cfg
because:

 - EP88x is not found in doc/README.scrapyard
 - include/configs/EP88x.h is remaining
 - board/ep88x/  is remaining
 - I could successfully build EP88x by simply re-adding entry to boards.cfg




Best Regards
