As you already picked a fairly new I-pipe core (1.5), the differences
will be around the kernel subsystems that changed meanwhile. Philippe
may better comment on details, still I guess no one here has tracked the
MIPS development to be aware of important changes there. Aspects to
check are specifically the timer and the IRQ subsystems. Both are under
heavy reconstruction recently, heading toward more generic
implementation which is a Good Thing also for I-pipe.

When you upgrade, going to head (then likely 2.6.20) is recommended to
avoid doing work twice - given that this kernel is stable in vanilla
form for you.
