If this is for generic Virtex 440 board support, why is it selecting a
specific Virtex 5 board?  Or am I confused as to what

XILINX_VIRTEX_5_FXT is the FPGA architecture, which has a 440 and can be
on a number of different boards.

Thanks,

Could you add that as some help text under the config option for 5_FXT?
That way you don't have to answer that question over and over from
