Hm... even though I like patch #2 more than the other one (which is
why I applied #2), there is a strange phenomenon remaining:


With patch #2 applied, I get these errors for the acadia_nand,
bamboo_nand, canyonlands_nand, and kilauea_nand configurations:

        -> ./MAKEALL  kilauea_nand
        Configuring for kilauea_nand board...
        In file included from include/common.h:724:
        /home/wd/git/u-boot/work/include/environment.h:117:1: warning: 
"CONFIG_ENV_IS_EMBEDDED" redefined
        In file included from /home/wd/git/u-boot/work/include/config.h:4,
                         from include/common.h:37:
        /home/wd/git/u-boot/work/include/configs/kilauea.h:127:1: warning: this 
is the location of the previous definition

But when I remove the CONFIG_ENV_IS_EMBEDDED definition from line 127
of include/configs/kilauea.h, then I get this:

        ./MAKEALL kilauea kilauea_nand
        Configuring for kilauea board...
           text    data     bss     dec     hex filename

        Configuring for kilauea_nand board...
        ppc_6xx-ld: cannot find common/env_embedded.o
        make: *** [/work/wd/tmp-ppc/u-boot] Error 1

There seems to be still a logic error ...

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
