Huh? You still have to rebuild just like before, the only minor
advantage is that the rootfs image doesn't get overwritten if you don't
delete the images dir before rebuilding.

I don't particular mind the nofpu/mmu suffixes, but where to end?
There's also abi, cpu variant, debug/optimzation level and hundreds of
other options.

I think we should just suggest people to use the O= support we already
have to put the output dirs somewhere else if they want to do something
like this.
