Nevermind. It works now.

Response to myself: It's possible to move the BBT marker. But in my
case I
have to deal with three possible layouts, so it's simpler to just use
NAND_BBT_NO_OOB then. The BBT pages are marked so that they're not used
for data in the partitions.

I'll send a V6 then.

Thanks,
