So you comile both at once? That is soft of what I am going for, but I compile u-boot stand-alone-programs like the ones in the examples folder.
No, in our case, the binary is provided to us as-is. We just need to put it on the flash image. Basically, Freescale has two development directions: the open source repositories, like the ones on denx.de and kernel.org, and the BSPs. One problem I'm trying to address is that the BSPs typically have stuff that you won't find on the external repos, like this binary. There's no way I can provide the binary in the denx.de repo, so the next best thing is to make its inclusion automatic. If the binary exists, then the code from denx.de will process it. Otherwise, it won't.
