 We can test it (or mabye better conditionalize it on MKDTRACE).
 
 It was necessary back then to get enough space on the  autobuild slaves
 to allow to parallel evb*arm* builds, which caused random failure
 otherwise due to running out of space.
 
 In the mean time the build cluster has been upgraded, and we reduced the
 number of kernels for evbarm, so it may just work.
