To really make use of device tree you need a recent dtc, but we've had
pushback requiring a recent dtc because people may not have it
installed. I asked Wolfgang a while back whether we could just put a
copy of dtc into the U-Boot source tree to avoid this issue, just like
the kernel did, but simply haven't received any response. Perhaps the
best thing is to just send a patch to do this; patches often get more
responses than non-patch email.
