Hi Andy,

thanks for your further testing!

-),yes, possible, that was my last comment on https://reviews.freebsd.org/D26853#623408  ,
that perhaps the reset-patch made it upstream.

… yes, that’s why I uploaded different start4.elf, fixup4.dat etc. yesterday for testing …

So the question here seems to be:
WHO is here the upstream( gnu,rpi-org,jesus christ, who knows) ,WHAT is going on with that upstream and at least:
what the heck has to sit in our msdospartion- DOWNstream :-) Ha Ha 

The simplest were to replace one file instead of more, I guess it should simply work , nothing else. In best case with files which are controlled by ourselves, not by uncontrollable` upstream, whoever that is… we can choose to load an upstreamed file which perhaps works today 
and breaks tomorrow. Or we can choose to compile dts ourselves, which is then under control…
Just my humble opinion, while that doesn`t count … only thing counts is that it should work, by what way ever. 

Regards

K.
