Sorry for bugging you again, Wolfgang.

The messages I get are:
/home/de/x-tools/powerpc-440fp-linux-gnu/bin/powerpc-440fp-linux-gnu-ld:
Warning:
/home/de/x-tools/powerpc-440fp-linux-gnu/lib/gcc/powerpc-440fp-linux-gnu
/4.3.2/libgcc.a(_udivdi3.o) uses hard float, u-boot uses soft float
/home/de/x-tools/powerpc-440fp-linux-gnu/bin/powerpc-440fp-linux-gnu-ld:
Warning:
/home/de/x-tools/powerpc-440fp-linux-gnu/lib/gcc/powerpc-440fp-linux-gnu
/4.3.2/libgcc.a(_umoddi3.o) uses hard float, u-boot uses soft float

So u-boot seems to use udivdi3 and umoddi3 from libgcc.
Does this mean that uboot is not self contained or that something is
wrong with my libgcc or can I simply ignore this warnings?

Cheers
Dirk
