Hi, The use of <b></b>-tags around make commands in the Porting Guide looks inconsistent to me. Maybe there's a convention I'm not aware of, I apologize for the noise then.
I'm familiar with the porting checklist but being able to visually scan the checklist in order to make sure I haven't missed any of the mandatory make commands would be valuable. However, some of the bold-tags where removed in r1.55 in order to make the formatting consistent with the main FAQ-style. Here's a patch to remove the remaining bold-tags, assuming this is the preferred convention.
