Just for completeness, let me mention that we have configurations where
the environment is embedded into the U-Boot image, so there you have to
erase the env in flash to reprogram U-Boot. Furtunately one usually
updates U-Boot out of a running copy of it, so after the reflash a
"saveenv" solves this specific problem nicely ;)
