This doesn't quite apply now, somehow and my attempt at making it apply
was either somehow wrong, or there's other problems with the series:
+(PMC440,lschlv2,zynq_zc702,zynq_zed,zynq_zc706,lsxhl,zynq_picozed,zynq_zybo) examples/a
pi/vsprintf.o: In function `printf':
+(PMC440,lschlv2,zynq_zc702,zynq_zed,zynq_zc706,lsxhl,zynq_picozed,zynq_zybo) build/../l
ib/vsprintf.c:865: multiple definition of `printf'
+(PMC440,lschlv2,zynq_zc702,zynq_zed,zynq_zc706,lsxhl,zynq_picozed,zynq_zybo) examples/a
pi/libgenwrap.o:build/../examples/api/libgenwrap.c:23: first defined here

And smartweb has a longer and different failure.
