Right. This works. But I'm wondering why this is the case, since "old" U-Boot 
can decompress to this destination successfully. This is quite annoying, 
since now I have to change all default env variables for this new "legacy" 
bootm command. So do you have any idea where the difference comes from?

Thanks.
