Sorry bad paste job that should be 

make at91rm9200ek_config.

I could try that and see it it will work.  Would be nice to have 
some sort of peg in the ground what I can build something that
works.

Would have been nice if they'd included it considering that the 
AT91rm9200-ek is an odd ball with no real long term future.

I'll try the AT91RM9200DK and see if I can get anything out of 
that.  I worry that with the old source I can't get a working 
tool chain for it.

How hard would it be to have a standard Hello World program build
on u-boot that just does a bare init of the hardware and spits 
"Oh Hai" out the serial port?  At least then you can verify that
the tool chain and startup code is mostly working.

Hmmm...
