Thank you very much for this Peter, it's much appreciated, and should
hopefully stop anyone else falling into the same trap!
Thanks!

Hi David,
It looks like the entry point is 0x40000. Why does the tutorial state
that the example needs to be run from a 4 byte offset? In this case
this
will result in a failure to create a stack frame for hello_world.
For PowerPC the entry point used to be non-deterministic, but was
generally 0x40004 which is where the wiki value came from. The
following 2 patches made the entry point consistently 0x40000:
http://git.denx.de/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=u-boot.git;a=commit;h=620bbba524fbaa26971a5004793010b169824f1b

I updated the wiki to match the newer 0x40000 address, which is valid
for PowerPC boards with a comment to check out
CONFIG_STANDALONE_LOAD_ADDR for other architectures.
