Thank you very much for the fast reply, I got a barebox working with 
vexpress on Qemu now! Just a question (little bit off topic): The Qemu 
virt ARM64 barebox version is called with: qemu-system-aarch64 -m 2048M 
-cpu cortex-a57 -machine virt -display none -serial stdio -kernel 
../barebox/barebox (according to 
http://barebox.org/doc/latest/boards/aarch64-qemu-virt.html). The first 
tests I did were starting my broken barebox version with qemu-system-arm 
-m 2048M -cpu cortex-a15 -machine virt -display none -serial stdio 
-kernel ../barebox/barebox. Is this 'virt' machine not the _real_ Qemu 
virt ARM32?

Greetings,
André
