Thanks, I pulled the battery and booted into NOR, it still shows: U-Boot 1.3.2-moko12 (May 09 2008 - 10:28:48) select reboot from menu - FDOM boots. Shut down device to NAND boot menu. NAND boot menu shows: pr 19 2009 - 19:10:05)520a22715fe7ff069b36b7dfdbb925a8e5a (A So it looks like NAND U-Boot was updated but NOR hasn't. However http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Backup#Backing-up_flash_images specifically states that you need to be in NOR U-Boot before flashing/backing up. After reading http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Flashing_NOR I get the impression that flashing NOR is not really recommended compared to flashing NAND. I'll try with NeoTool since even with the new U-Boot a backup fails after 38minutes (while booted to NAND).
