These header files contain the implementation details of the CPU ports. 
I looked at the history of these files quite regularly.

I would move the CPU-specific headers of libdl to cpukit/score/cpu.

With $bsp I mean the @RTEMS_BSP@, the BSP base directory, not the actual 
BSP name.

arch is one of { arm, bfin, epiphany, i386, lm32, m32c, m68k, mips, 
moxie, nios2, no_cpu, or1k, powerpc, riscv, sh, sparc, sparc64, v850 }. 
For example:

bsps/lm32/lm32.am

In bsps/lm32/lm32.am:

if BSPS_LM32_MILKYMIST
include_HEADERS += bsps/lm32/milkymist/include/bsp.h
include_HEADERS += bsps/lm32/milkymist/include/tm27.h
...
endif

In Makefile.am or bsps/Makefile.am:

include $(srcdir)/lm32/lm32.am

I don't know if this AM_CONDITIONAL() stuff works well, but can we make 
it worse than it is?

A general question, why do we need more than one configure.ac to build 
RTEMS, the BSPs and the testsuites?
