A few things:

1. Please don't e-mail me without including the U-boot list unless it's
something only I would be interested in, such as cheap Cialis or maybe
the chance to help recover millions of dollars from the widow of Saddam
Hussein's cousin-in-law.

2. Please don't top post.

That out of the way...

This tool isn't built by default.  I've attached a couple of patches
that apply cleanly to the latest git tree:

- The first turns on building of the tool.
- The second fixes compile errors and warnings that I came across a few
months ago.  I expect you'll need it if you're using Linux 2.6.  If
you're using a 2.4 kernel, I don't know if this is needed or not.

regards,
Ben
