Help moving BSP to 4.7

[Peter Dufault]

I have a BSP I worked on last spring for the Phytec MPC565 that I'll 
move to 4.7 for incorporation.

I figure the best way is:

cvs export the current 4.7 top with date "now";
import that snapshot as a vendor branch locally;
add the MPC565 BSP;
provide the resultant patches after checking that they still apply when 
I'm done.

Make sense?

Another question - I wanted to use the download helper to see what tool 
versions to use.  Since I build on
FreeBSD I specified "No tool binaries desired" instead of a host.  That 
fails:

"There was a problem in running the RTEMS Download Script.

ERROR MESSAGE: Target (powerpc) specified without host

If this problem does not indicate an error in filling out the form and 
it persists, please contact webmaster at rtems.com with the following 
information:

  want_cxx= no
  want_ada= no
  want_toolsrc= yes
  version= snapshot
  target= powerpc
  host= none
  QUERY_STRING= 
version=snapshot&target=powerpc&host=none&want_toolsrc=on"

I plugged in Linux to get the source versions used there.  Is that 
error intentional because you might use different tool versions on 
different development hosts, or should "want_toolsrc" work without a 
specific development host?
