Hi all,
it looks like that the problem raised upon the following commit on dora 
branch of poky:

http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?h=dora&id=d04d0c07355b40dc2f2f71548526d9bb74147fbb

The commit changed the way the eglplatform.h is patched, however this 
file is not available for iMX6: in dora the bbappend we have in 
meta-fsl-arm disable the egl support.

IMHO, there are two possible solutions:
1) check the the file presence before calling the "sed" command
2) call the "sed" command on the original file before install it

Actually I'm not sure about which is the best solution, but in my case I 
just applied the following patch (solution 2) to mesa recipe:

My two cents
