If they are well-formed, I'm not sure how this could cause a problem.
They are not referenced by anything in the firmware build.  The ones
in yesterday's logs were not well-formed; they had spaces embedded in
them and probably we're leading to a syntax error somewhere in the
guts of configure (actually looks like the problem may be in
configure.gnu (shell quoting across shell scripts is hard to get
right.)  Probably ought to rewrite configure.gnu as a python script.
That way arg handling wouldn't be borked.)

Yes, please add these to the list:

Already on the list:

I don't think we need to remove any of these, the firmware doesn't
look at any of them.
