Linux frequently fails to build on one or more architectures.  I don't
think happens much more frequently on armel than on others.
Unfortunately as this is just after wheezy release we never uploaded
release candidates of 3.8 or 3.9 in experimental which would have
allowed finding and fixing these problems earlier.
