I took a look at the TQM8349 code, and it looks like it will be identical in the platform code space.  That would subtract the 'fsl' part from the equation.  How about 'mpc83xx_eval'?  btw, this would be taking us back to the original patch, which I like since I personally don't want to see one file per eval board (I could ifdef protect platforms in machdefs.c if that works for you).
