5 as Peter said, it's part of U-Boot ... just unpack the latest tarball and try
6 this:
7 $ touch include/config.mk
8 $ make tools BIN_FILES=mkimage
9 this works with u-boot-1.1.6 ... not sure about newer versions

11 i never made an ebuild for u-boot as it is specific to one board which has to
12 be configured/selected at build time (and really it is totally not worth the
13 effort), making an ebuild for the u-boot tools would be useful ...
