Thank you!  That's what I was looking for.

My scripts are now updated to support the new boot
process.  In particular, they build U-Boot from source,
build the VideoCore elements, and properly assemble
all of the new boot bits.

The following config.sh should be sufficient to build a
working RaspberryPi image from -CURRENT:

-----------------------------
board_setup RaspberryPi
SD_SIZE=$((1500 * MB))
#INSTALL_USR_SRC=yes
#INSTALL_USR_PORTS=yes
-----------------------------
