Yes. I have tested it, and it "works" to the extent that it boots
normally and I can't see any issues[1] at first glance.

For clarity, the sha256 of the u-boot provided from the FreeBSD image is
SHA256 (u-boot.bin) =
8fa7d8d0f8d9708f7adecb89ca239a52c2f9b6911c20e27b71e4d99d132dbfc4

The latest u-boot from Klaus is
SHA256 (u-boot.bin) =
48b6d9b3837aabaa7ad9830babe15722f2c46cc03f48f1b64ef40d2c0d0f7529

In both cases, the start4.elf and fixup4.dat that I'm using are 
the same vintage:

% sha256 start4.elf
SHA256 (start4.elf) =
dce1545e7133835b77871295292f692a84101722f6ceecf73f91f2248ba01907

These were downloaded from

[1] how would I "test" the installed[2] u-boot.bin to make sure it was
working correctly?

[2] the one that was on
FreeBSD-14.0-CURRENT-arm64-aarch64-RPI-20210311-15565e0a217-257277.img
