Did you try the current version (top of tree in CVS) ?

Don't do that!

This is because you added files which don't belong to U-Boot.

and to watch someone else doing it wrong, without commenting.

ok - then its something else - I actually added these files because of the
errors I got with the stock 1.1.1 - which failed with ld not finding boot.o

below is the output from make with the relevant error.

Check your toolchain.

There is no such object (or source)  in  U-Boot.  I  guess  it  comes
though  your  compiler's  library  files.  Use  an approved toolchain
instead.

egrep patterns are full regular expressions; it uses a fast  determi-
nistic algorithm that sometimes needs exponential space.
