The bool line says "52xx/6xx/7xx/74xx", but you talk > about many more processors in the help text. You mention the 83xx, but not the 85xx or > 86xx, nor do you mention Freescale. Not only that, but the help text implies that 8xx, > 52xx, 82xx, and 83xx are part of the same family, but the bool text implies that 52xx is > part of a different family. Timur, Please read through the rest of the patch sequence. This patch was just the "first step", moving things around without additional changes. jdl
