Ross,

I've just sent an RFC patch to allow building mkimage for the target. I'd like 
to collect feedback for it first, but feel free to squash it with the previous 
patch, if it's accepted (or commit separately - your choice). The update to 
2014.10 will follow shortly, I just want this version to get through first, as 
it has been in limbo for a few months...
