Hello Sjoerd Simons, A signed BL2 which allows unsigned BL2 chain load is already available for experimentation. Refer this link: http://forum.odroid.com/viewtopic.php?f=98&t=6147#p58984 The suriyan.bl2-hkxu3.1212.5422.zip blob contains a signed BL2 which allows the same.
The layout of SD card is as follows:
BL1 (1 to 30) 15K BL2 (31 to 62) 16K indicator block (63 to 64) 1K uboot (65 to 2112) 1M tzsw (2113 to 2624) 256K unsigned BL2 (2625 to 2656) 16K
A non zero in the first byte of the indicator block instructs the signed BL2 to load the unsigned BL2 @ offset 2625.
I took the binaries from your .zip file above and put them on the SD card for my odroid-xu3 at the offsets above. I'm using BL1 and TZSW from the u-boot-hardkernel release[1] and using u-boot-dtb.bin from my own mainline u-boot build which inclues the odroid-xu3 patches.
If I leave the indicator block zero'd, everything works fine, and it boots my version of mainline u-boot without any problems.
If I then write a non-zero value to the first byte of the indicator block and write your unsigned BL2 at the appropriate offset, it no longer boots. Is the unsigned BL2 supposed to boot u-boot at offset 65 when it's finished as well?
How are you debugging your SPL images?
I tried adding CONFIG_SPL_SERIAL_SUPPORT so I could printf from SPL, but that doesn't compile because it seems that libfdt support is needed.

[1] branch odroidxu3-v2012.07 from https://github.com/hardkernel/u-boot.git has pre-built binaries that support u-boot size up to 1M in the sd_fuse/hardkernel_1mb_uboot directory.
