Hi,

The aforementioned commit

commit b502611b51f02718c2d1117d4981dabceb5af6de
Author: Joakim Tjernlund <joakim.tjernlund at transmode.se>
Date:   Sun Jul 6 12:30:09 2008 +0200

    Change env_get_char from a global function ptr to a function

    This avoids an early global data reference.

    Signed-off-by: Joakim Tjernlund <Joakim.Tjernlund at transmode.se>

found by bisection and causes at least the imx31_phycore board to break. 
The boot process becomes slow, printenv is very slow too, booting does not 
always come to the bootdelay countdown, tftp wtops working too. Reverting 
this commit from the current HEAD fixes the problem.

Thanks
Guennadi
