want to verify build setup for building u-boot for beagle xM

after having neglected my poor xM (rev C) for too long, i want to
play with it this afternoon, and i want to start by building u-boot
for it from scratch.

  is a valid combination:

  * codesourcery's latest "lite" toolchain:
$ arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc --version
arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc (Sourcery CodeBench Lite 2012.03-57) 4.6.3
$

  * u-boot clone from "master" at denx.de

is that an acceptable combination for an xM rev C? thanks.

No idea. Why would you use Sourcery CodeBench Lite? Use a yocto or eldk 5.x binary toolchain instead in case you want to avoid the building step.
Both work perfectly fine and are even open source;)

i know ... there are some politics involved. other than that, is
the clone of the u-boot "master" repo sufficient for a beagle xm as
opposed to, say, the "ti" or "linaro" repo?

All the Beagle's run fine with u-boot git... Last tested v2013.01-rc1
earlier this week, on a Classic, xM, and Bone..
