Fortunately, the device in question appears to work fine with the stock 
u-boot. It doesn't seem prudent to delay the release with an adequate 
work-around for the problem.

Clearly this applies to all powerpc hardware, and it needs to be 
addressed. Per your request, I'll send a note to the u-boot list so we 
can discuss it in detail there.

Thanks,
