Hi Geert,

I've upgraded the Debian u-boot-tools to 2016.01+dfsg1-2:

Desired=Unknown/Install/Remove/Purge/Hold
| Status=Not/Inst/Conf-files/Unpacked/halF-conf/Half-inst/trig-aWait/Trig-pend

+++-====================================-=======================-=======================-=============================================================================
ii  u-boot-tools                         2016.01+dfsg1-2         amd64                   companion tools for Das U-Boot bootloader

But still find it not support xtensa..

$ strings /usr/bin/mkimage|g xtensa
<EMPTY>

I do see there is an xtensa patch 2 years ago:
