To be precise... this is not possible. The 750 has no BDM debug port.
AFAIK BDM is being used only on the MPC5xx/8xx families.

Your problem is most probably casued by some init sequence  which  is
present  in  your  debugger  init  script, but missing in Your U-Boot
code.

"in a loop" ... Which loop? Where exactly? Perhaps you  might  be  so
kind as to elucidate.
