commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=f2a8f79c0257f35af75c61ecd9f7fd4266f72513
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/next

[Thomas:
 - reword the comment of the new macro, and add details about the
   expected arguments, as suggested by Yann E. Morin.
 - rework the logic to move the files in $(@D), as it was simply not
   working in the original patch. $(basename $(1)) was used to get the
   filename without the extension, but it also contains the full
   path. $(basename $(notdir $(1))) is needed.]

+# Helper for self-extracting binaries distributed by Freescale.
+#
+# The --force option makes sure it doesn't fail if the source
+# directory already exists. The --auto-accept skips the license check,
+# as it is not needed in Buildroot because we have legal-info. Since
+# there's a EULA in the binary file, we extract it in this macro, and
+# it should therefore be added to the LICENSE_FILES variable of
+# packages using this macro. Also, remember to set REDISTRIBUTE to
+# "NO". Indeed, this is a legal minefield: the EULA specifies that the
+# Board Support Package includes software and hardware (sic!) for
+# which a separate license is needed...
+#
+# $(1): full path to the archive file
