The other 3 that I tried worked fine:

	Installation of sysutils/u-boot-rpi2 (u-boot-rpi2-2015.04)
	Installation of sysutils/u-boot-rpi3 (u-boot-rpi3-2017.01)
	Installation of sysutils/u-boot-sinovoip-bpi-m3 (u-boot-sinovoip-bpi-m3-2016.05)

So this may be unique to a64.dtsi and its lack of
hexadecimal digits after the "@" in what I quoted.

Still, sysutils/u-boot-pine64 used to build. So it may
be a BSDL vs. GPL DTS issue as far as the handling of
the notation goes.
