Good idea. How about something like this? I had to jump through some 
hoops to make it work with a biarch 64/32 compiler because upstream 
u-boot assumes you always have a cross compiler for a specific target 
architecture which is not the case in normal enterprise distributions.

If you think this approach is fine (I do ;)), then I'll squash it into 
this patch but won't resend the patch - I don't want to clutter people's 
inboxes with random binary blobs.
