yeah, I saw that in patchwork, but couldn't comment due to the patch
seemingly not having reach the actual u-boot list strangely.

That patch doesn't seem to help me right now anyway, as I somehow seem
be stuck on mem_malloc_init() hanging when called from initr_malloc() 
(board_r.c) and am not yet sure what is going on there
(on u-boot-master from last friday).
