This is quite unfortunate; it breaks any scripts that were building 
U-Boot via "make <board>_config; make". Can't we add another rule to 
allow the old build commands to work?

Otherwise, I guess I'll have to hack my scripts to check whether e.g. 
scripts/multiconfig.py (which was added in this commit) is present in 
the tree, and execute different build commands based on that...
