So far as I know, those 32-bit arm systems using sysutils/u-boot-*
ports that, in turn, are using boot.scr and ublr.bin are not using
EFI. Are there problems for any of the following contexts?

/usr/ports/sysutils/u-boot-a13-olinuxino/pkg-descr: * A boot.scr (U-Boot script) that loads ubldr.bin and execute it is included
