FTBFS: zedboard BSP with SMP

[Jonathan Brandmeyer]

Yeah, well, the targets of interest to me are only available in the latest
Git, and this bleeding edge is quite a gory place!

So far I've only been using the RSB to build the toolchain itself and not
the kernel.  But I understand what you mean, that in principle the kernel
can be installed to yet another (clean) prefix, so long as the application
Makefile is appropriately addressed.

Thanks,
Jonathan
