These packages can provide architecture-level support, variant-level support, processor-level support, board-level support and peripheral driver support. Take at look at the various "target" records in packages/ecos.db and you will get the picture. The "m5272c3" target (aka "Hardware Template") will not provide the support required for a board featuring an MCF5235 processor but the architecture-level and variant-level support is already in place. At minimum, you will need to write a processor-level support package for the MCF5235 and a board-level support package for the specific board you are using. I hope this helps...
