For PowerPC the entry point used to be non-deterministic, but was
generally 0x40004 which is where the wiki value came from. The
following 2 patches made the entry point consistently 0x40000:
http://git.denx.de/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=u-boot.git;a=commit;h=620bbba524fbaa26971a5004793010b169824f1b
http://git.denx.de/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=u-boot.git;a=commit;h=c91d456c055237bdadb99a80e198748b8cf32595
I updated the wiki to match the newer 0x40000 address, which is valid
for PowerPC boards with a comment to check out
CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR for other architectures.
