--- Comment #1 from Thomas Petazzoni <[email protected]> 2013-02-17 02:52:27 UTC --- This is expected. When you make a change to your configuration, Buildroot does
not try to guess what needs to be rebuilt, because it's very complicated to
achieve in a safe and reliable manner. So we simply decide not to do it, and
leave it to the user to know what parts of Buildroot need to be cleaned after
making a configuration change.

In your case, you can do:

make at91bootstrap3-reconfigure

to restart the build process of AT91Bootstrap3 from its configuration step.
