Please don't engage in those senseless games just to work around a 
stupid restriction of the uImage file format.

If uImage is a problem, just don't use it, period.  Problem solved. All 
the targets supported by the unified kernel are recent enough to have 
bootz support in their U-Boot source.  Please use that.

Or, consider the mkimage process as part of the kernel _installation_ 
procedure and not a pre-distribution step.  But if I were you I'd go the 
bootz route for its simplicity.
