Thanks for the feedback!
Is upgrading gcc to 4.5.1 reasonable?
I'll see what I can do about the u-boot-1.1.6
It might be helpfull if you can point me at documentation/examples that explain how a standalone application should be developed (I've read the documentation, but didn't find examples that compile out of the U-Boot source tree).
Thanks! Bart

Ouch. An out-of-tree port, and a prehistoric one at that.
U-Boot 1.1.6 is more than 5 years old. In terms of software development that was when saber-toothed tigers lurked behind each other stack frame. You do not want to use such old code. Do yourself (and us) a favour and update.
Also, GCC 4.3.x is probably not a clever choice on ARM. If I remeber correctly, it has tons of problems.s lurked behind each other stack frame. You do not want to use such old code. Do yourself (and us) a favour and update.

But your biggest problem is the out of tree code - we don't know it, so how should we be able to help?
