Nope.

Or to be completely clear: there are cases, in the new makefiles, where 
the makefile use e.g. "libarch" instead of the new variable 
(target_cpu), even though the effect is not visible outside the makefile 
(like an if statement). In those cases, I replaced the old variable with 
the new one.

But all uses "external" to the makefiles have been preserved. Changing 
that will be a much tougher task. I just want to make sure that the new 
stuff we write looks good and consistent.
