I see. I found at least some of the cases I was tackling was because
things had moved from .objs to .target because of the TARGET_I386
checks. Trying to use TARGET_I386 in a file that is listed in
Makefile.objs causes nasty warnings.

I would very much like it if we can be more strict not allowing such
changes without a very strong reason in the future :)

Part of the problem is of course that there are no easy ways to check
for the presence of say HPET since we don't have CONFIG_HPET so
TARGET_I386 becomes the easy way :(
