yes, we were thinking of adding some image header to the uboot file,
which can then be checked within the currently-running u-boot to make
sure the revision is correct.  However, that has not yet been
implemented, since it's an optional improvement, and we have many areas
that have a higher priority.

theoretically you probably could, but I haven't seen that happen so far,
despite all kinds of misconfigurations.  after all, 3.3V is about the
highest you can get out of that PMU ;)

I'm actually convinced that it is a openocd, or rather even: libftdi bug
