Ah... Are you reffering to "Loading from NAND using 'nboot' Periodically Fails
Where 'nand read' Succeeds" thread?
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.boot-loaders.u-boot/41977/
It seems conclusion was to skip bad blocks by default, but no patch went in.
I'm considering it a bug fix and therefore -rc material...
