Multi image support is the mechanism for generating multiple (board- or
SoC-) specific images out of the same barebox binary. Basically it makes
it possible to have a single defconfig for all mvebu boards. Try for
example the imx_v7_defconfig, it currently builds:

 barebox-freescale-imx51-babbage.img
 barebox-genesi-efikasb.img
 barebox-freescale-imx53-loco.img
 barebox-datamodul-edm-qmx6.img
 barebox-gk802.img
 barebox-tq-tqma6s-mba6x.img
 barebox-tq-tqma6q-mba6x.img
 barebox-phytec-pbab01-2gib.img
 barebox-phytec-pbab01-1gib.img
