There was a glitch between clk-next and arm-soc - it should be fine
starting with next-20121030.

Uh, how stupid of me! I have to finally get used to the new
multi-platform-kernel reality... Sorry about it - a quick workaround
would be:

while I'm improving the situation by better means.

Sorry about this and thanks for letting me know!
