Hmmm...  I've avoided sourcing any of the config or functions files
because I wanted this file to stay simple and self-contained.

It _started_ as a very simple wrapper that just called the other stages
in sequence, and conceptually I'd like it to stay that way.
Unfortunately, it's gotten more complex over the years, with dependency
tracking and config symbols.  (I haven't allowed dependency tracking
_within_ build stages, system-image.sh was doing some for a while but I
ripped it back out again to simplify things.  But build.sh checks
tarballs to see if it needs to rebuild stages.)

That said, we don't really need is_in_list here, and that's all the
include is for.  You can just go:

  [ -e "sources/targets/$1" ]

instead.  Could you redo the patch with that?  (Or I can if you prefer...)

Thanks,

Rob
