If uboot.bin is what the name suggests (i.e. a straight binary file
rather than an ELF image) then the GNU_HASH check will be inoperative
anyway and there is no need to skip it.

I'm also not entirely sure that setting INSANE_SKIP_xx to "True" is
going to have any useful effect.  If I remember right the value of that
variable is meant to be a list of checks to skip and I don't think True
is going to match against anything there.

So, all in all I think you are probably correct that this line can be
safely deleted.
