Which is the main thing I want to fix.  I don't yet know the proper
solution, but it sounds like there is at least consensus to try
another approach.  The main reason I'm asking is that I don't
have access to other MIPS boards for testing, and I didn't know
the history of this development.  I have several Alchemy Au1xxx
boards that I intend to get running with u-boot, in both big and
little endian modes, along with a couple of R4Kc custom cores.

Any objections to setting CROSS_COMPILE in include/config.mk
and allow setting it within the 'mkconfig' part of the Makefile?
I still don't know what to do with the rest of the config.mk, as it
sets R4Kc specific flags based upon the binutils version.

Thanks.
