sysutils/u-boot-* are based on:

/usr/ports/sysutils/u-boot-master/Makefile:UBOOT_VERSION?=3D      =
2022.04

I expect that Bob is working with that version for problem
identification (which need not be of a U-Boot issue).
Changes to U-Boot to improve things would be a separate
issue --if such changes are even possible. (Bob is not that
far along.)

My note was based on having LOG_DEBUG and DEBUG defined in a
way that works for 2022.04 and after without having to worry
about the status of the change in log.h .

Until the following are changed to have appropriate
values at the overall configuration level, it does
not appear that LOG_DEBUG and/or DEBUG will do
anything:

QUOTE
The following options are used to enable logging
at compile time:

	CONFIG_LOG - Enables the logging system
	CONFIG_LOG_MAX_LEVEL - Max log level to
		build (anything higher is compiled out)
	CONFIG_LOG_CONSOLE - Enable writing log
		records to the console
END QUOTE

I expect that means having them set appropriately
in rpi_arm64_defconfig for the experiments.
