Sam,

Tom pointed me at you to look at a makefile issue with 
arch/ppc/boot/images/Makefile.  When I do the following:

$ make uImage
   CHK     include/linux/version.h
make[1]: `arch/ppc/kernel/asm-offsets.s' is up to date.
   CHK     include/linux/compile.h
   CHK     usr/initramfs_list
   UIMAGE  arch/ppc/boot/images/uImage
Image Name:   Linux-2.6.12-rc3
Created:      Fri May  6 10:19:28 2005
Image Type:   PowerPC Linux Kernel Image (gzip compressed)
Data Size:    993322 Bytes = 970.04 kB = 0.95 MB
Load Address: 0x00000000
Entry Point:  0x00000000
   Image: arch/ppc/boot/images/uImage not made

The issue is that the file arch/ppc/boot/images/uImage does exit (the 
'not made' is not correct).

$(obj)/uImage: $(obj)/vmlinux.gz
         $(Q)rm -f $@
         $(call if_changed,uimage)
         @echo '  Image: $@' $(if $(wildcard $@),'is ready','not made')

It seems the $(wildcard $@) expands at the start of the rule.  Any 
ideas?
