My suggestion is that you use U-boot from git.denx.de instead of the 2009.08 from FSL.

Is that because the mainline U-boot id better maintained and/or ... ?

Well for once thing, it's because you're asking for help on the mailing list for mainline U-Boot. :-)

We can't help you with some other codebase that we know nothing about.

I do expect mainline is better maintained and supported, except for missing particular features/hardware support that nobody ever bothered to submit to mainline -- which in this case appears to be hardware that you care about, so unless you're prepared to do a fair bit of work to add support to mainline, I'd try again to find a support channel for your Freescale-provided U-Boot. Or maybe we could help you figure out what it is you want to do, instead of scrubbing, if the answer doesn't depend on details of a non-standard U-Boot.

Oh, and if you're curious about my freescale.com e-mail address, I work in a different part of the company and don't have i.MX knowledge or contacts.
