It used to be like that.  It's now ibm4xx.h -> board.h -> proc.h

Maybe we can do this in 2.5.  We've already got the bits around for
making symlinks from CONFIG_FOO -> foo.h, and an empty foo.h if it
doesn't exist.  So we could do CONFIG_8xx -> symlink
include/asm-ppc/platform to mpc-8xx, and so on..
