I have patches for u-boot that allows it to be compiled on FreeBSD.  I'm pretty
sure toolchain from devel/mips-rtems-gcc will do the trick (at least I always
used this for ARM).

I can share patches if you're interested (I posted them several times on the lists).
I also have unofficial patches for UFS filesystem support, and FreeBSD kernel
loading (with hints/kenv).
