I don't understand why you insist on merging this series with the logic copied
18 times.

I'm happy to tweak my series that uses an include file, but I don't see the
point of merging this series first when almost every line will be removed when
my series goes in.

Please work on the suggestions I made and rework the patches
and resend. As I mentioned earlier, I want to enable this work
and them make improvements.

Yes I would like install to work to. I'd also like it to work for the powerpc
tests you ignored. But I don't want it to involve copying the same logic into
every Makefile in the tree.

My series was sent over a month ago, with plenty of time for you to merge it
instead of this cut-and-paste solution.

cheers
