Here's my tree: http://www.SpringDaemons.com/stas/uboot-atamantb.tar.bz2
It is based on the Nov 2008's uboot GIT, but I think it can be faily easy merged
with usptream (there were no obtrusive changes).

To build use `gmake CROSS_COMPILE=arm-rtems- yourplatformname_config &
gmake CROSS_COMPILE=arm-rtems-` (or mips-rtems- for mips). For example
of usage of new config options we added see include/configs/atamantb.h.
E.g. for FFS support you need to add '#define CONFIG_CMD_FFS', and
'#define CONFIG_CMD_BOOTBSD' will add 'bootbsd' and 'kenv' commands.

There's history in tree (use `hg log`), so you can take out patches needed,
if you'll need to apply them to another tree.

Hope that helps.
