So:
1) You can certainly read the specification without agreeing to
   anything (click-through is now gone - docs accessible straight from
   http://uefi.org/specifications/).
2) The potential complication would be with regards to implementing
   and distributing - which requires signing the Adopters Agreement:

I actually think the implications of 2) for a project like U-Boot
would be a useful thing to bring up for discussion on the FW/OS forum
mailing list at http://uefi.org/FWOSForum.
