I use U-boot in QEMU versatile express regularly. It's my primary
place for testing the pxe/pxecfg/menu patches I've submitted recently.
I have real versatile expresses available, but they're typically busy,
so it's a useful way to try new changes without taking up a real system.

I have a copy of ca9x4_ct_vxp.h I copy in from outside the tree
for building with - it strips out all the flash options, undef's
CONFIG_CMD_IMLS, and def's CONFIG_SYS_NO_FLASH, CONFIG_ENV_IS_NOWHERE.
So, I would welcome a cleaner way to get the same thing done.

Thanks,
Jason
