Dear "Luca Ceresoli",

I ported U-boot to a custom BeagleBoard-derivative board, which is running fine so far.
Now I'm trying to upgrade from the current codebase (v2010.06) to a more recent one. My custom U-boot stopped booting after merging the ARM relocation code implemented in september 2010 by Heiko Schocher, even though I think I've changed my code where needed.
That is one of the problems you will be facing again and again with out-of-tree ports. As we don't even know your code, we could not even help you if we wanted to.

If you still have such definitions in your code you are still so far away from current top of tree that any comments are in vain as more changes are still to be applied.
Maintaining out-of-tree ports _is_ a continuing pain. Don't do that. Push your changes upstream in time, i. e. when they are current.
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
