Using the directory structure to find source files is a bad idea because 
you don't notice that you haven't "git add"ed a file until it's too late 
(typically the maintainer notices it for you...).

We do it for default-configs/targets, but that's an exception and I'd 
rather not extend it more.

In fact, Philippe, perhaps you can add the extra tracedirs for hw/ and 
target/ to the default-config/targets/*.mak file?

Thanks,
