subscribing to the list would be a great idea, so you're always up to date 
whats going on ;-)

Yes. Your'e right with that.

I just checked most current source (...), there were changes regarding 
this issue.
Tom introduced a check against the fail of fdt_getprop(...) call.

http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot.git;a=commitdiff;h=99bb38e2cce9d99238458e0f6d1880c6d2e80a4d

Can you please try with your testcase with most current source again?

please let us know if the problem is fixed with this.

cheers,
Hannes
