To put some salt into the wounds ;) , Using gcc 4.5.1 board_init_f isn't 
reached here. When I'm using gcc 4.3.5 it is reached. In both cases I've 
used the same version of binutils, 2.20.1.

For a test without using jtag, I've modified board_init_f to be

-----------
board_init_f()
{
turn_on_leds
while(1) ;
...
}

I'm working with the master (f8689b9eb3a7f6925cd50404a12479889188c510) 
on a beagleboard, using
--------
     make mrproper
     make omap3_beagle_config
     make
--------

to build u-boot.bin. So now it seems we have to look at some difference 
regarding versions of gcc and not binutils.

I will have a look if I will found out more, currently I'm not sure what 
else is called from start.S before board_init_f().
