i think you'll need to split this up in logical sep changesets since you are 
fixing different problems.

i dont like copying & pasting the same logic in multiple places.  this is how 
code rots and bug fixes diverge.

considering LDSCRIPT/CONFIG_SYS_LDSCRIPT only get used by the top level u-boot 
file, and only when the system is configured, i wonder if we shouldnt just rip 
it out of config.mk and into the top level Makefile.

let's see what Scott thinks ...

the VERSION_FILE changes look fine

pretty sure this breaks board builds.  if the only thing this fixes is a 
harmless warning when generating dependency files, then i say ignore it.  
after all, this is how it has always worked in the past and no one really 
cared.

There have been no warnings when generating dependencies.

Changes that cause new warnings need to be fixed.

yes, there has.  you probably dont run `make tools` (at least, in an 
unconfigured tree), so you've never noticed.

> Changes that cause new warnings need to be fixed.

you'll have to define "new" here.  the warning he refers to has been there for 
many many releases, and for pretty much as long as i can remember.

i dont mind fixing warnings, but i do mind breaking the building of boards to 
fix a harmless warning.

i might be thinking of a different env_embedded situation.  a different 
problem with your patch to tools/Makefile: you copied the same logic multiple 
times which means more bitrot.

why dont you do something like:

I'm sorry but I can't see how this can break the builds. Could you
please be more specific? I've tried to build some boards, it actually
works...

Yep, they are harmless but they are not warnings but rather scary errors
actually. ;) I think it's better to fix them.

Is it correct to assume that this commit has been obsolteted by
the following commits:

249b53a   2011-10-06 20:19:42 +0200   Build timestamp_autogenerated.h without 
config
a76406f   2011-10-06 20:20:15 +0200   Safer timestamp_autogenerated.h generation
9f87658   2011-10-06 20:21:16 +0200   ublimage: NAND block size isn't set at 
build-time

?

Not exactly. I've reposted my patch splitting it into three as Mike
suggested, and all these patches are already applied.

The commits you mention deal with the related problems that were
introduced later during the development.

No, you can just drop it. It's already applied long ago (well, its
second version).
