You're right. There isn't anything directly related to any FCoE target in
the fcoe-utils releases. If I remember I'll try to add a note somewhere
in the source before I create another tarball to avoid future confusion.

The target is still evolving and as some point we may have some target
specific code in fcoe-utils, it's just not the case right now.

There are two target implementations- SCST and TCM. TCM was recently merged
into the kernel and therefore I know a bit more about that target. If you're
intent on using the SCST target I can't help much. We have an old target
repository in the Open-FCoE code archives (just look at the gitweb page), but
that code is going to be quite old and you're not going to get much help if
you run into problems.

If you just care about getting an FCoE target up and running and you don't
particularly care about the plumbing you can follow a guide I just created
for the TCM FCoE target here:
http://www.open-fcoe.org/open-fcoe/wiki/tcm-fcoe-target-guide. This is
someone else's guide that I just published. It's based on RHEL6.1, but I think
it should be pretty distro independent other than things like yum vs. apt
vs. yast and maybe package names.

If you, or anyone else, finds problems with that wiki page either edit the wiki
directly or let me know and I'll update it.

Hopefully I answered this above.
