I already answered your question in a personal mail. Why are you asking again?

TI's OMAP3 processors have Cortex-A8. You can find versions of u-boot for these processors in many places(they are not in mainline u-boot tree yet):
For some of the boards, you'd see here: http://linux.omap.com/pub/bootloader/3530evm/ https://webmail.ti.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=e49298289ff24e8a8c24893ec2dc9e85&URL=http%3a%2f%2flinux.omap.com%2fpub%2fbootloader%2f3530evm%2f (for 3530EVM) http://linux.omap.com/pub/bootloader/3430zoom/ https://webmail.ti.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=e49298289ff24e8a8c24893ec2dc9e85&URL=http%3a%2f%2flinux.omap.com%2fpub%2fbootloader%2f3430zoom%2f (for 3430 Zoom MDK) http://linux.omap.com/pub/bootloader/3430sdp/ https://webmail.ti.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=e49298289ff24e8a8c24893ec2dc9e85&URL=http%3a%2f%2flinux.omap.com%2fpub%2fbootloader%2f3430sdp%2f (3430 sdp)
http://code.google.com/p/beagleboard/downloads/list https://webmail.ti.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=e49298289ff24e8a8c24893ec2dc9e85&URL=http%3a%2f%2fcode.google.com%2fp%2fbeagleboard%2fdownloads%2flist This is beagle board development site.
Also uboot-v2 has a limited amount of cortex support (in the mainline tree itself).
Steve sakoman maintains a git tree for u-boot v1 which he and Dirk Behme may be planning on pushing in the coming days -> even that has cortex support. Git: http://sakoman.net/git/u-boot-omap3.git/ (there is a branch with omap patches called common, test etc..) https://webmail.ti.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=e49298289ff24e8a8c24893ec2dc9e85&URL=http%3a%2f%2fsakoman.net%2fgit%2fu-boot-omap3.git%2f gitweb: http://www.sakoman.net/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi https://webmail.ti.com/owa/redir.aspx?C=e49298289ff24e8a8c24893ec2dc9e85&URL=http%3a%2f%2fwww.sakoman.net%2fcgi-bin%2fgitweb.cgi

By the way, disclaimers such as those above are pretty dis-concerting to an open community I guess looking at previous discussions on the same.. for e.g. see http://www.nabble.com/Help-needed-for-porting-linux-on-mpc8260-based-custom-...
You could probably speak to your IT folks about this.. They might have email list configuration which are white listed and disclaimers would not appear when send to those lists.

With apologies for promoting my own messages, here is a more elaborate description of why these disclaimers are stupid: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/43556/focus=43764
...and some sympathy: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/32795/focus=33146

That is a very good suggestion.
