All it does is create the file which is pretty easy. Nothing is done
with it. So the patch would not be worth much. I'll post up
something after I work out the shell variables thing.

Probably but I still need some sort of marker that indicates that this
particular variable needs post processing. All the variables are in 2
lists and the current code just iterates the list kicking them out.
But now we have to be a bit smarter about what variable is what.

export ARCH:=i386
export CROSS_COMPILE:=
export CC:=$(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc -m32
export HOSTCC:=gcc
export OBJCOPY:=$(CROSS_COMPILE)objcopy --gap-fill 0xff
All of these need to be quoted at minimum to not cause compile errors.
OBJCOPY needs to continue to get stuck into the makefile properly.

I'll see what I can come up with.
