Well, you can just "make libfdt" instead of "make all".

Well, it's _a_ convention that's used sometimes. Particularly for
projects where the lex/yacc based parser is some little side thing,
rather than the core component. That said, a "make dist" target for
dtc is probably not a bad idea. Even though we don't really build
tarballs with the frequency we probably should.

I'm a little uncomfortable with this, since it means you can only make
dist from a git tree; you can't make dist to recreate a tarball from
itself.

This is wrong though. The Makefile.* fragments are designed to be
usable from other make systems, when libfdt or whatever is embedded in
other projects. Therefore, I don't want to change the semantics of
this variable from the present meaning of "generated files which need
to be compiled with a C compiler and linked into the dtc binary".
Instead you should create a new variable to cover other generated
files which you can also use from the make dist target.
With that fixed, you can send this to address@hidden (dtc maintainer) and
address@hidden which is the usual forum for
dtc patches.
