No.  It is a compile-time problem.  The reason we see difference there
is because I based off linux-next (essentially linux-arm-soc/next <-
Sascha's 'devel' branch), while you probably based off Sascha's
for-next branch.

Sascha,

You forgot to apply the following patch on your for-next branch?

commit fad107086d5a869c1c07e5bb35b7b57a10ecf578
Author: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer at pengutronix.de>
Date:   Thu May 19 17:25:05 2011 +0200

    ARM i.MX debug macro: use CONFIG_SOC_* instead of CONFIG_ARCH_*

    CONFIG_ARCH_* are deprecated, so remove one user.

    Signed-off-by: Sascha Hauer <s.hauer at pengutronix.de>

I think you still need to keep your for-next branch as a bleeding-edge
for i.mx since people base their i.mx works off there.
