I do that in this style:

for mach in LIST-OF-BOARDS;do MACHINE=$mach bitbake something;done

This works fine in Bash and allow to do anything from remote etc.

My last use was:

for mach in `ls openembedded/conf/machine/at91*`;do export MACHINE=`basename 
$mach .conf`; bitbake -cclean base-files sysvinit task-base task-boot; bitbake 
console-image;done

To make it work you should have to use MACHINE ?= "machinename" in conf/*.conf 
files or just not set MACHINE there at all.
