Same with gcc 4.3.5

u-boot.bin is 257KiB with 4.2.4 but only 251KiB with 4.3.5 !
Either its much better optimised or the relocation info shrunk which
_might_ indicate something is missing in it...
Compiled with 4.3.5 last output is the "DRAM: 64 MiB" message. Then silence.
I suppose you don't need u-boot.elf from me, if otherwise, ping me:)
Best Regards,
Reinhard
