[U-Boot] Bug in saveenv handling?

[U.Mutlu]

I just made this unpleasant observation while playing with u-boot:

On the u-boot CLI I changed an envvar and saved the env:
   setenv bootdelay 5 ; saveenv

Then I issued, just for fun, the command "scsi scan", but it crashed
and rebooted the device. But this time on the display only the tuxx logo
and the very first u-boot line is displayed, nothing else happens.

It seems u-boot has overwritten parts of itself on the storage medium (uSD
with FAT boot partition).

I had this experience some more times in the past; after writing u-boot anew
to the uSD it continued working again.
Btw, I once even had the case where saveenv overwrote boot.cmd (but nothing 
else) with garbage (IIRC it was filled full with the char @ ).

I mention this just because it seems that there's maybe a bug in u-boot's
saveenv handling (maybe data was not completely flushed, file handle
was not closed, or maybe the fat write routine is buggy?...).



=> setenv bootdelay 5 ; saveenv
Saving Environment to FAT... OK
=> printenv bootdelay
bootdelay=5

=> scsi scan
