Since the only thing CONFIG_FREEBSD does now is to enable distro boot support for it, maybe even rename the the option into CONFIG_DISTRO_FREEBSD. Alex

We might want to support uImage/FIT at one point (I'm currently looking at this) so CONFIG_FREEBSD will make more sense. But we can rename the option later if needed, I don't know which way is better.

Or going further, is there a strict reason the distro changes need to be conditionalized at all? As long as they're properly guarded with checks for file existence it would only cost little boot time on a Linux system. If you think of systems where you place U-Boot onto the SD card along your OS code then for sure it's possible for FreeBSD to enable this CONFIG_FREEBSD option during its build; but if you think of devices where U-Boot is in flash then it seems weird to flash different U-Boot variants dependent on what operating system you plan to run.
