Trouble with cross compile to arm for kernel 2.6.37 for 2.3.4 Android

```
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. repo init -u git://gitorious.org/rowboat/manifest.git -m
rowboat-gingerbread.xml (pulled source for 2.3.4)
2. cd rowboat-android/kernel
3. make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi- distclean
4. make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi- am3517_evm_android_defconfig

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Should have started a kernel build.
Instead:
user@ubuntu:~/rowboat-android/kernel$ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-eabi-
am3517_evm_android_defconfig
***
*** Can't find default configuration
"arch/x86/configs/am3517_evm_android_defconfig"!
***
Don't want x86 -- want ARM mode

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Ubuntu 10.10 64-bit building Android 2.3.4 source

Please provide any additional information below.
Android stack built, got hung up on kernel.
This used to work fine with 2.3 Android code.

How do I modify the cross compile for the new code?

Reproduce the failure from rowboat-android/kernel with the am3517_evm_android_defconfig command and inspect why it searches arch/x86/configs. Trace the kernel make configuration entry point and the ARM board configuration location; done means the ARM defconfig is found and the kernel build can proceed.
