Hm, it looks like there is the whole nand system somewhat broken :( Haven't seen it earlier, but: U-Boot 2009.08-00208-g9ef0569-dirty (Sep 29 2009 - 15:42:42) OpenRD_base
SoC: Kirkwood 88F6281_A0 DRAM: 27535155593740288 MB NAND: 0 MiB *** Warning - bad CRC or NAND, using default environment
But boot message state that there is no NAND detected! So I assume that is the main cause for the not working saveenv command? Cross checked it with marvell provided u-boot - this one works. So damaged hardware isn't the case.
It's a EABI problem, see this thread:
http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2009-September/059896.html
(and the other one referred from here). We don't have a good solution yet, but you have a hacky patch to revert to the old ABI at the end of the thread above.
Many thanks for the link, but now I've got other strange errors during u-boot compile:

Do you know how I can solve this problem? (I've read the two given mail threads but found no hint to this problem, so maybe my toolchain is broken?)
Many thanks, Dieter
We still haven't found out what's actually causing this. EABI itself should be fine since Linux works well with it, but something is causing problems with multiple versions of GCC for U-boot. For now you can use the patch referred to above. For me, saveenv works fine on OpenRD, so it should be OK for you as well :-)
