And which board is it?
As I saw in your log, it uses the "normal" mtest. Try to use

CONFIG_SYS_ALT_MEMTEST

instead. (Hopefully, this is available in 1.3.1 ...)

Hmm.. this is very old ...

Why not?

Not earlier?

Hmm...

But you can try it ...
This would help here, to stress more the SDRAMs ... also you
can do better memtests there/with it.

If this is one chip, are there really 256,5 MB ?

Hmm.. I looked in the log. Is this right, that if you get this error
u-boot never returns to the shell prompt?

Also from your log:
Pattern 0000158A  Writing...            Reading...
Mem error @ 0x0071E65C: found 00008F3F, expected 00008F21
                                    ^^                 ^^

Pattern FFFFEA75  Writing...            Reading...
Mem error @ 0x00723684: found FFFF5CB6, expected FFFF5CD4
                                    ^^                 ^^
                                    always the last byte seems broken

Is there getting something hot and the board, and maybe disturb this datalines?

bye
