  from back in april, karim yaghmour pointed out a problem related to
older lite5200 boards, and suggested a fix:

http://old.nabble.com/-U-Boot---PATCH--Env.-vars-fix-for-lite5200-td31013626.html

i checked my git clone of u-boot and it seems that the file
include/configs/IceCube.h still contains the original code:

#if defined(CONFIG_SYS_LOWBOOT16)
#define CONFIG_ENV_ADDR         (CONFIG_SYS_FLASH_BASE + 0x00040000)
#endif
#endif  /* CONFIG_SYS_LOWBOOT */
#endif /* CONFIG_LITE5200B */

  would it be proper to submit a patch to change 0x00040000 to
0x00050000?  i admit i don't know enough about what else might be
affected or what else might also need to change, i know only that that
change is necessary for u-boot to run properly on that type of board.

  thoughts?  is that an appropriate standalone patch?
