I believe this is meant to be NetBSD's last stage bootloader and not any
U-Boot piece. See for example their PREP loader variant:
http://fxr.watson.org/fxr/source/arch/prep/stand/

As I understand it, to boot NetBSD from U-Boot they produce a fat image (the
above stage2 loader + kernel as a multi-image file), which is booted via
bootm, but I never exercised the procedure myself.
