With current grub (that added support for transparent caches on armv5)
I can finally boot grub over PXE (core.img or rescue image; need to add
netboot support) using qemu versatilepb.

Now the problem is to do anything useful hard disk is needed and
default u-boot for versatileqemu does not seem to offer any support (or
may be it is qemu -M versatilepb). Were you successful in running arm
port under qemu?
