Looks like someone else was also chasing this bug with a similar approach ;)

Yeah, we could have collaborated on IRC! :)

Am discussing briefly the approaches taken with Chris.


After IRC discussion, we think the approach should be a little more
rigorous. An idea to pursue is to provide a way to align the ini/cfg
files to be able to use the triplet in rtems-tool. This would be both
more flexible but also should be more easily checked for correctness.
It will require probably rewriting the 25 or so cfg/ini files that use
the %rtems_version macro, and eliminate the macro.

Yes, I think a way to update or set macros via the INI files. I think this needs to wait until after RTEMS 5 has been branched.

I would at macro maps and then a way to have INI files create and update macro maps. This lets you layer specialised versions.
