[U-Boot] PCI-E problems on Kilauea board

Hi,

I have several PCI-E related  problems on Kilauea board Rev 1.2

1. With u-boot v2009.01 and latest git I'm getting machine check
    exception when PCI-E card is plugged into slot 0. There's no
    problem if the same card is plugged into slot 1.

    This seems to be a regression introduced after 
2008.10-rc2-02699-g725c8dd
    (version shipped on AMCC resource CD), as with this version both slots
    function properly.

    Any hints what could be the problem with latest u-boots ?

2. Another problem is that in bootstrap configuration B (CPU - 333 Mhz, 
PLB 166MHz)
    PCI-E cards are not recognized in any slot. This happens with all 
u-boot versions I've
    tested. Linux also does not recognize PCI-E cards. Kilauea board 
manual says that PCI
    clock is determined by CPLD. Could it be CPLD/FPGA bug ?

Thanks.

Felix.
