Not sure why this hasn't made it into pkgsrc
So, why isn't this in src?
You could ask this question of a lot of things...
This isn't linked in the kernel, so having
it in source would allow us to build everything without relying on
pkgsrc or having to go get it. It looks like U-boot is GPL-2.0 and
we have other GPL software in src. Or am I missing something here?
apparently you can use build.sh to cross compile pkgsrc these days

I’ve not tried it myself.
