The ngw100 code wasn't pulled because I was still having problems with
it. However, I've found a fix in the AVR32 Linux BSP patchset that I
applied to the current ngw-board branch, and it seems to fix the
problem. I've pushed out the fix, could you give it a try?

I recommend that you start by doing
git fetch git://www.denx.de/git/u-boot-avr32.git ngw-board:ngw-board

Then, you can either do your own changes directly on top of this branch:
git checkout -b my-ngw-stuff ngw-board

or you can pull it into a branch that you've already been doing some
work on:
git checkout my-work-branch
git pull . ngw-board

Unfortunately, I haven't used cogito much myself, so I can't help you
with that. But the basic principles should be mostly the same.
