Hi There!
I just checked out the latest u-boot git HEAD and did a
$ make PM854_config or a $ make TQM8540_config followed by a $ make all using binutils-2.18, gcc-4.2.1, kernel 2.6.21 on a native mpc8540 environment.
but linking fails close to the end:

Both of the above MPC8540 targets fail here. I searched the archives already, but didn't get any idea. Any hints? I'll try v1.3.0-rc1 next.
Thank you,
