I ran into a problem that linux would not build because if you
use linux and request UIMAGE, then you fail because
u-boot-mkimage is not available.

I then made the linux recipy depend on the u-boot native tools,
and then u-boot.git was selected and oe tried
to do git access to www.angstrom-distribution.org or something similar.
I do not know why, and could not figure out why it did so.

That is why I wrote the new recipy.

If you want to add patches they may or may not be broken by a later git 
version.
It is more important to have something which has been tested and validated
than the latest stuff.

I agree that it would have been better to use the 2008.10 though.
