The builds shows the following failures (I've kept duplication so you
can see the patterns). Not too bad considering:

MACHINE=qemux86, failure in:
gst-ffmpeg:do_configure
http://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org:8010/builders/nightly-world/builds/66/steps/shell_24/logs/stdio

MACHINE=qemuarm, failures in:
clutter-1.8:do_configure
glew:do_compile
qt4-x11-free:do_compile
http://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org:8010/builders/nightly-arm/builds/402/steps/shell_19/logs/stdio

MACHINE=qemuppc, failures in:
clutter-1.8:do_configure
glew:do_compile
qt4-x11-free:do_compile
http://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org:8010/builders/nightly-ppc/builds/359/steps/shell_19/logs/stdio

MACHINE=mpc8315e-rdb, failure in:
mesa-dri:do_compile
http://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org:8010/builders/nightly-ppc/builds/359/steps/shell_35/logs/stdio

MACHINE=qemumips, failures in:
clutter-1.8:do_configure
glew:do_compile
http://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org:8010/builders/nightly-mips/builds/371/steps/shell_19/logs/stdio

MACHINE=beagleboard, failure in:
mesa-dri:do_compile
http://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org:8010/builders/nightly-arm/builds/402/steps/shell_35/logs/stdio

MACHINE=routerstationpro, failure in:
mesa-dri:do_compile
http://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org:8010/builders/nightly-mips/builds/371/steps/shell_35/logs/stdio


Also, adding meta-qt3 and building lsb targets with DISTRO=poky-lsb adds
the failure:
qt-x11-free:do_compile
<plus repeats of the above>
http://autobuilder.yoctoproject.org:8010/builders/nightly-ppc/builds/359/steps/shell_76/logs/stdio

There will be more build failures but probably variations of the above
on lsb builds but those haven't happened yet.

Cheers,
