Cubox is Dove, which dates from way before DT on ARM, and there's relatively few people working on Dove support, so progress towards DT support is rather slow there. I believe it to be at the point where it's possible to boot the Cubox using DT, but not all features are supported. But then, not all features of the Dove SoC are supported in mainline either; the port essentially stopped after a little more than basic support was merged. Eg, no hardware monitoring driver, no video drivers, etc...
