Fortunately, ATK is well documented and the source code is available:

i.MX Advanced Toolkit Standard Version
User's Guide

http://www.freescale.com/files/32bit...=Documentation
(latest version bundled with the application)

Customizing the Freescale® Advanced Toolkit for i.MX Based Platforms
http://cache.freescale.com/files/dsp...ote/AN3985.pdf

Source Code
http://www.freescale.com/webapp/sps/...sign_Tools_Tab

It can be built with cygwin. But the quesition remains: Is the information available enough for creating the needed image?

As you've mentioned, in the user documentation we read:

NOTE
If you have built your own library for the target board, you can specify a different Flash Model.
Users don’t have to know the specific type of NAND or NOR Spansion flash in use.
