I'm afraid I haven't made myself clear on CONFIG_SYS_SKIP_RELOC. I did 
not mean it to be an 'old vs new reloc' choice mechanism; I mean it to 
be the controlling option for whether relocation happens at all or not.

I want a relocation skip option, because it is useful for boards which, 
for any reason, know that they are already residing at the Right 
Address(tm).

As far as an option to switch from old to new relocation... If there is 
a consensus from all custodians that all arches should move to generic 
relocation, then I think we should avoid allowing the older mechanism to 
persist at all.

Amicalement,
