1) I don't have JTAG
2) I don't trust new U-Boot version
3) I want to be able to boot old kernels
What you are proposing is more like saying - we changed kernel
user-space API, old applications aren't supported anymore, get the new
libc and rebuild them all. For some reason we don't intentionally do
this, I wonder why.
