Is there any way to pass info such as board type from the boards.txt file to the compiler?

Thanks

Follow up on previous question,

I found a way to do what I wanted, but I would still like a more elegant way of passing a compile option (macro) from the boards.txt file

#ifdef AVR_ARCH
#if (AVR_ARCH == 5)
#define TOUCH_STEALTH
#endif
#if (AVR_ARCH == 6)
#define TOUCH_SLIDE
#endif
#else
#error Unable to determine hardware platform (TOUCH_STEALTH / TOUCH_SLIDE)
#endif
