The problem is that scripts/make_image_tgz.sh is old and hasn't been
rewritten using the ipkg method yet. If you want to make it work, please
have a look at how scripts/make_image_root.sh works and rewrite it after
that scheme.

Applied on ptxdist-1.0-trunk. For ptxdist-trunk we probably have to
re-check the ipkg-arch thing, because I've moved all platform related
things into platformconfig. Can you provide a patch here as well?
