I hope we don't do this, as I don't think that is a very good
distinction either. I prefer some of the other suggestions, where
we simply have mix-n-match configuration options. Select a board
and processor type and go from there.
I have had the opportunity lately to use some of the other Linux
processor architecture configurations. The Linux PowerPC configuration
really isn't too bad, and I would prefer just a small evolution. If
you want to see some bad configuration and hard to use environments,
go visit some of the other emerging architectures.......
I think even some of the "source restructuring" that has been discussed
could also be mitigated with a more logical set of configuration options.
