I would prefer if the cflags came in via the TARGET_CFLAGS, similar to how the 
selected_optimization works.  In the past we've hacked around with CFLAGS itself 
and in the end it's always seem to have caused problems.  By modifing 
TARGET_CFLAGS instead, then the user can do (in a recipe):

CFLAGS = "-fmy-custom-flag ${TARGET_CFLAGS}"

Same comment here.
