finally I got both some time and hardware :

4 nops after _start does the trick, i.e. the board is up and running fine.


Diffing both System.maps and U-Boot hexdump gives only trivial results :

- "in_flash" and "_start_of_vectors" adress increment = 0x10.
- offset calculation for relative branch instruction also increases by 0x10.


Let me know if you need more information or something else tested.
