You lost the rest of my context, since this wasn't in reply to where I
explained what I think will work better, long term, for everyone. But,
I'm not sure you're right about needing to make multiple SDKs since
they're OpenEmbedded based and there's already support for building
multiple configs for a single MACHINE target, which is essentially what
you would need to do to support N kits with a single more generic and
easily re-usable board config.
