Hmm...maybe this is a stupid question, but why can't it _always_ use
the RAM area to look up the environment? env_init() is one of the first
things to be called during bootstrap...

Maybe it's wishful thinking, but if we could get rid of this extra
logic, u-boot would become simpler, smaller and faster, right?
