Wolfgang,

It exists, and is used in many places. If it didn't work, you would not be able to stop the initial count down. Or the hello_world app would not terminate. Or...
I found the problem, and it was on my end, not in u-boot.
The hello_world app and the initial boot countdown both worked on my board, but I could only press ENTER, not any other key. Based on your comment, I realized that I was fighting a connectivity issue, not a u-boot issue. Although I had originally tested with a direct serial connection, I later rigged up a serial-to-ethernet converter so that I could work remotely via telnet. As it turns out, I had telnet configured wrong.
My apologies. Sorry for the bother, but thanks for the help.
