Modifications are based on the linux kernel approach and
support two use cases:
1) Add O= to the make command line
'make O=/tmp/build all'
2) Set environement variable BUILD_DIR to point to the desired location
'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
'make'
The second approach can also be used with a MAKEALL script
'export BUILD_DIR=/tmp/build'
'./MAKEALL'
Command line 'O=' setting overrides BUILD_DIR environent variable.
When none of the above methods is used the local build is performed and
the object files are placed in the source directory.
Fix problems with GCC 3.3.x which changed handling of global
variables explicitly initialized to zero (now in .bss instead of
.data as before).

- Added Motorola MPC8560ADS board support (board/mpc8560ads)
* Minor code cleanup
allow selection of clock frequency as "make" target
* Implement memory autosizing code for IceCube boards
* Configure network port on INCA-IP for autonegotiation
* Fix overflow problem in network timeout code
* Patch by Richard Woodruff, 8 Aug 2003:
Allow crc32 to be used at address 0x000 (crc32_no_comp, too).
* Provide consistent interface to standalone applications to access
the 'global_data' structure
Provide a doc/README.standalone more useful to users/developers.
* Make IceCube MGT5100 FEC driver work
- remove trailing white space, trailing empty lines, C++ comments, etc.
- split cmd_boot.c (separate cmd_bdinfo.c and cmd_load.c)
* Patches by Kenneth Johansson, 25 Jun 2003:
- major rework of command structure
(work done mostly by Michal Cendrowski and Joakim Kristiansen)
- Hymod board database mods: add "who" field and new xilinx chip types
- provide new "init_cmd_timeout()" function so code external to
"common/main.c" can use the "reset_cmd_timeout()" function before
entering the main loop
- add DTT support for adm1021 (new file dtt/adm1021.c; config
slightly different. see include/configs/hymod.h for an example
(requires CONFIG_DTT_ADM1021, CONFIG_DTT_SENSORS, and
CFG_DTT_ADM1021 defined)
- add new "eeprom_probe()" function which has similar args and
behaves in a similar way to "eeprom_read()" etc.
- add 8260 FCC ethernet loopback code (new "eth_loopback_test()"
function which is enabled by defining CONFIG_ETHER_LOOPBACK_TEST)
- gdbtools copyright update
- ensure that set_msr() executes the "sync" and "isync" instructions
after the "mtmsr" instruction in cpu/mpc8260/interrupts.c
- 8260 I/O ports fix: Open Drain should be set last when configuring
- add SIU IRQ defines for 8260
- allow LDSCRIPT override and OBJCFLAGS initialization: change to
config.mk to allow board configurations to override the GNU
linker script, selected via the LDSCRIPT, make variable, and to
give an initial value to the OBJCFLAGS make variable
- 8260 i2c enhancement:
o correctly extends the timeout depending on the size of all
queued messages for both transmit and receive
o will not continue with receive if transmit times out
o ensures that the error callback is done for all queued tx
and rx messages
o correctly detects both tx and rx timeouts, only delivers one to
the callback, and does not overwrite an earlier error
o logic in i2c_probe now correct
- add "vprintf()" function so that "panic()" function can be
technically correct
- many Hymod board changes
Fixes for x86 port (mostly strings issues)
