I took the patches from mips-queue and did my usual build:

$ make ARCH=mips CROSS_COMPILE=mipsel-softfloat-linux-gnu-
O=/home/mano/db120 /kernel/kbuild-db1200 menuconfig
/mnt/data/_home/mano/db1200/kernel/linux-2.6.git/arch/mips/Makefile:212:
arch/mips/Kbuild.platforms: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `arch/mips/Kbuild.platforms'.  Stop.
make: *** [sub-make] Error 2

Any ideas?

I'll implement this for Alchemy shortly.
