fscl means "Freescale Community" : 
http://freescale.github.io/
https://community.freescale.com/welcome
so the suffix -fslc is added to u-boot & linux git trees :
https://github.com/Freescale/u-boot-fslc
https://github.com/Freescale/linux-fslc

make savedefconfig automagically removed the comments.
I you prefer I can manually reintroduce them.

then the help is misleading as it says (for
BR2_TARGET_UBOOT_CUSTOM_REPO_VERSION and for
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_REPO_VERSION) :
"Revision to use in the typical format used by Git/Mercurial
E.G. a sha id, a tag, _branch_ , .. "

OK will do in v2.
