Hello,

with this version of gcc which is default in ubuntu 12.10:

u-boot "true" and "false" hush commands are copiled incorrectly in uboot v2013.04-rc2 
(c8142633e169665b246352918df5b76fd243bb71)

when I run help in u-boot it show:

# help
0       - do nothing, unsuccessfully
1       - do nothing, successfully
?       - alias for 'help'
base    - print or set address offset
...

Instead "0" and "1" there should be "false" and "true" command.

This happen when stdbool.h from C99 compiler is included in cmd_test.c and then true and false macros are expanded to 1 and 
0. Quick fix for this is adding #undef before U_BOOT_CMD:

diff --git a/common/cmd_test.c b/common/cmd_test.c
index d4ec186..a7ec8ac 100644

Without above patch and with gcc 4.7.2 it is not possible to use u-boot on Nokia RX-51, becuase it has true and false commands 
in preboot env.

Please fix this problem in u-boot v2013.04.
