 It would indeed be a good idea to make the second parameter optional.  And
in that case, I would leave out the second parameter whenever possible.

 It is used for 'make source-check'.

 Sounds like a great plan!

 The manually maintained buildroot.html is deprecated and should be 
removed Real Soon Now (Peter?).

 Leave out the second parameter in the example here.

 So this could become 
	$(call DOWNLOAD,$(patch))$(sep))
right?  That's a
tremendous improvement!

 While you're at it, maybe you can add quotes, i.e.
	$(SCP) '$(call stripurischeme,$(call qstrip,$(1)))' $(DL_DIR)/$(2)

 Note that the second parameter doesn't have to be quoted - we do this
precisely to make sure it's a safe file.

 The test should be there also when defaulting $(2).  So, to make
life easier, the default should be set in the DOWNLOAD macro itself.

 Also, the call to the DOWNLOAD macro in the GENTARGETS wasn't updated.
You should replace the , with a / there.

 As I mentioned before: use the default, remove the second $(CUPS_SOURCE).
And the same for all other packages, of course.
