If possible, it would be great if you took care about the first part. I've done
all that I know how to do there and I think it should be mostly fine already.
Also, most of the renaming should be straightforward anyway. Looking back,
maybe I *shouldn't* have renamed anything - it's just cosmetic and makes the
patch look scary :)
The functionally important parts are the build-side procedure (install-u-boot),
the config data objects (u-boot-configuration) and the selection logic in
gnu/system.scm (*bootloader-configuration-*). It's actually no big deal.

No problem. I have 3 ARM boards here that I can test it on. They are quite slow
- so testing means ~ 3 days of waiting-for-it-to-finish-compiling. But I don't
have to sit next to it and wait :)
I do think that the extlinux.conf generation is finished as well. I will test
it, though.
