  No.

  I have completely different crystals than the AT91RM9200DK.  Do
you want me to put my clock settings in u-boot?  How about the 500
different AT91RM9200 boards that get designed this year?  Do you want
their specific stuff in u-boot?

  By necessity u-boot is already nearing #ifdef hell because it
supports so many devel boards (which is good).  If we all threw
our specific board design stuff in there, I don't think anyone in
their right mind would use u-boot.

  Just my opinion ;-)  Maybe Wolfgang disagrees.
