Well, there is some more-or-less default in the official OpenOCD,
configure will enable about half of them based on what is found on the
system (usb libs, and so on). Won't fit for anyone. One could use this.
Or more likely, just set all not marked as broken to "default y".
Just, I honestly didn't bother to care about it, and test under what
circumstances which is compiling, as probably everyone using OpenOCD
will enable the ones they need.
Which is why I put it the way it is now. Developer tool, in the end.

As said before, the host-package is just a by-product of the target
package. One could build it out of ptxdist or externally, the latter
would be more common. This is why we talked about even including the
host package in ptxdist.

So, I leave the choice up to you:
A) I update the patch with "default y" to all non-broken drivers, and do
a quick compile test here. Will take a few days.
B) We keep it as it is, as a reference on the list for anyone who might
find it useful.

Best regards,
  Andreas
