Broken U-Boot packages?

Has anyone else had success building images with the U-Boot *packages*?

I’m updating Crochet to use U-Boot from ports/packages for RPI and Beaglebone, but I get non-bootable images (generally with U-boot failing to identify the disk partitioning) when I use the package.  Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

 * RPi built with U-Boot from package - non-bootable
 * RPi built with U-Boot port compiled locally - works
 * Beaglebone Black with U-Boot from package - non-bootable

Today I hope to try booting an old white Beaglebone and building the u-boot-beaglebone port locally to see if that follows the pattern.

For the record, my ports tree is up-to-date and I’m installing the packages onto a recent FreeBSD-CURRENT amd64 VM via:

$ pkg install sysutils/u-boot-rpi

Cheers,

Tim
