I really should have provided this earlier.  Wanted to run some
more ARM tests, but haven't taken the time yet and did not want
to further delay my "tested by" feedback.

Have run-tested v5 and v7 on PowerPC based hardware, and
build-tested other iterations of the patch set.

Tested-by: Gerhard Sittig <gsi at denx.de>

The test was done for MPC5121 on an ifm AC14xx board; the U-Boot
binary works as expected, the fw_printenv(1) tool can be cross
built as well as native, out-of-source builds work perfectly (and
allow to identify where the source resides -- yay!).

The most recent test setup was created from
- U-Boot master e222b1f36fed "powerpc/mpc85xx:Increase binary
  size for P, B & T series boards."
- the "sandbox: Use system headers first for sandbox's os.c in a
  different way" prerequisite patch
- the v7 version of this Kbuild series
