All these non-mainstream architectures will from now on have to live in
add-ons. We plan to add some magic to the main configure file to allow
add-ons provide the base_machine/machine definitions but that's it.
Everything else can be handled in add-ons. So, just reorganize your
code to have to appropriate structure and, for the time being, provide a
little patch to the main configure file. Then distribute the add-on
from your side.
