It seems there are a number of AT91 based boards in mainline that use
I2C:

	-> g -l AT91 include/configs/* | xargs egrep -l I2C
	include/configs/at91rm9200ek.h
	include/configs/cmc_pu2.h
	include/configs/cpuat91.h
	include/configs/eb_cpux9k2.h
	include/configs/kb9202.h
	include/configs/m501sk.h
	include/configs/mp2usb.h
	include/configs/otc570.h

What exactly is the problem?

I have no idea what linux4sam.org is and in which way they might be
an authority of which U-Boot versions are considered to be current.
All I can tell you is that U-Boot 1.3.4 is 21 months old, which is a
long, long time.

This is wrong. The top of tree of u-boot/u-boot-at91.git is at commit

-> git describe remotes/u-boot-at91.git/master
v2009.06-rc1-5-gf8ddcd5

This is 2065 commits after v1.3.4 and means that a total of 299799
lines have been added since, 141729 lines removed, and 158070 lines
changed.

If you http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot.git;a=forks you can also see that
the u-boot-at91.git repository is listed as "orphaned", which means
it is probably not the best base when looking for current code.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
