Well, I was just wondering what the connection is between DataFlash (which is 
some flash technology that I don't know much about) and the md command.

Because on this one chip I'm working on, the designers decided to mux the LBC 
address lines with the video signal from the on-board display driver.  No, I'm 
not kidding about that.  That means that when you're using the video display, 
you can't access flash.  CONFIG_CFI_FLASH_USE_WEAK_ACCESSORS will allow the 
saveenv command to continue working under this situation.
