AFAICS that is handled by the "default" switch case.

IMHO the code bails out if we've missed (partially or fully) any platform
and/or if the user has provided a invalid WAFFLE_PLATFORM. Thus we will reach
the if (!found_platform)... only when the variable is already set (via the
CASE_DEFINED_PLATFORM macro).

Perhaps this code is targeting some elaborate use-case which I'm failing to
see here?
