Hopefully.

Some observations:

Not sure what to do with CONFIG_SPL_STACK: altera was just using
symbol from linker script. Is there way to keep it like that? I'd hate
to invent magic constant.

Same issue with CONFIG_SYS_SPL_MALLOC_START... I was doing:

        /* setup MALLOC after clocks going faster */
	mem_malloc_init((ulong) &__malloc_start,
					(&__malloc_end -
	&__malloc_start));

I guess defines allow me to keep my definition. Good.

spl_parse_image_header(): We have "modern" system, we'd prefer not to
do
                /* Signature not found - assume u-boot.bin */
...but to hang in that case, in order not to jump to random code.

Ok, I should have something publishable, soon ;-).
