unable to make flash-qemu-local

[Rodolphe Ortalo]

Thanks for the information, I'm sure the patch will help as soon as I
find where to apply it... ;-)

However, to which version of u-boot should this patch be applied. Here,
in my (simple) build conf, the target file is not at the same location,
an u-boot is v1.2.0.

ortalo at mist:~/moko$ find . -name cfb_console.c
./build/tmp/work/fic-gta01-angstrom-linux-gnueabi/u-boot-1.2.0-r2/u-boot-1.2.0/drivers/cfb_console.c

There are no similar lines in this version of the file.

(BTW, how is it possible to switch to a different uboot version inside a
MokoMakefile-managed build tree? I saw there were several variants - I
wanted to try another one but did not find how to select it. Maybe
that's this "alternative" bitbake thing?)
