Compared to the results a moment ago, $(. XXX) does try to evaluate
output from XXX script:
root@OpenWrt:/# cat /tmp/source.sh
#!/bin/sh
$(. /tmp
Very interesting indeed. I find the mailing-list is really
good place where developers can learn a variety of stuff.
I tested the two scripts with bash, the results are
effectively the same. It seems that $(. XXX) does try to
evaluate the output from XXX, but does not do it very well.

So far, board.d files were having execute bit set and contained a
shebang. However, they are just sourced in board_detect, with an
apparantly unnecessary check for execute permission beforehand.
Replace this check by one for existance and make the board.d files
"normal" files, as would be expected
