Using the kernel tools is a lot better than calling cpio ourselfs, as
this way we can have it create device nodes for us. So no need to reopen
/dev/console and things like that.
While here, fix also initramfs compression (untested), as in my
experience the kernel drops all symbols regarding compression from it's
.config in the first compile phase. Probably one should make the actual
compression algorithm configurable (and ideally depending on what the
kernel supports for the given architecture).
This is a rough hack based on what I'm using in the custom viprinux
build file, so something like this is already running somewhere. ;)

Make configuration of new targets cheap.
Just add a new file in target/arch/sys-enabled/foo.
See other files for syntax. While doing runtime tests
with the new infrastructure I've updated a lot of other
stuff:
- gcc 4.5.2
- uClibc 0.9.32-rc1 (NPTL)
- strongswan, php, miredo, parted, util-linux-ng, e2fsprogs
I promise, this is the last big fat commit this year ;)

you can now choose between specific embedded systems like PC Engines
ALIX boards, Foxboard, .. or between generic architecture support like
x86, x86_64, mips, ...
This does reduce the overhead of duplicate configuration files in target
directory. Now qemu, toolchain and ibm x40 support is combined in one target
directory target/x86. Distinguishing between hardware profiles happens
via menu based configuration. (CPU choice for kernel, CFLAGS for package
building, ..). We will see if this is the right direction.

use hardware profiles, instead of extra target dirs.
fix dependencies.
