None that I know of.

What for? U-Boot is a boot loader. You don't need things like
multi-tasking or a ful TCP/IP stack or java support in a boot loader.
If your applications needs such services, then use U-Boot to boot an
OS. I recommend to use tools for the purpose for which they were
designed for. Yes, you can use a microscope as a hammer, but I don't
think it's a good idea. YMMV.
