The xdev way of building crosstools to build uboot is pretty much dead.
Probably the best way forward is to use one of the existing u-boot ports
such as sysutils/u-boot-wandboard, copy it and transform it into a port
to build the flavor you need.  To save the time of building the port
cross-compiler from scratch you can do "pkg install arm-none-eabi-gcc".

Are you working with the ConnectCore 6?  If so, the u-boot ports for
wandboard or cubox-hummingboard are probably 99% ready, you may need to
tweak the config file patch in the port.
