Why on Earth use XP? It's about the worst possible choice of MS OS for
trying to build U-Boot, if only because it's going to stop being
supported very soon (if not already?).

Plus, in general, U-Boot building requires GCC or LLVM, and generally
Unix- or Linux-originating tools, which are fiddly to get working
properly on an MS OS (disclaimer: I last tried this a decade ago and it
was a /nightmare/. I guess it got better over time, but still, it's
either MingW or Cygwin, right, and that probably still means a lot of
"playing around" to get things working).

Which version of U-Boot are you building, and with which version of GCC?

Why not install some Linux-based OS? If you can't, why not at least run
some Linux-based OS as a VM? You'd save a lot of trouble IMO.

Amicalement,
