The two more sensible options I can see are

* leave everything where it is, live with the problem that the
  separation between celleb-native, celleb-beat and ibm-native
  is unclear.
* put both celleb and the ibm blades into the cell subdirectory,
  now with three different machine descriptions in there and only
  make sure that platforms/cell doesn't share any code with ps3,
  which is more clearly separated already (once we move spufs out).

I'm fine either way, and will accept patches from Toshiba to merge
the two directories if you prefer that, but I won't do it myself.
