That's very strange - I've built successfully for an IMX6QSABREAUTO on dora, master, and master-next branches just in the last week. I'm running 64 bit LUbuntu 13.10.
My config - I have the following in my local.conf: DISTRO_FEATURES_remove = "x11 wayland"
This is my .bb file  (sorry for the formatting, somethign went weird):

I built with master-next as I wanted to use Qt5.2.0 rather than 5.1. I've built and run the Qt5_Cinematic_Experience program on the board. (although I did do master and dora as well before that)

I think I had to rename this file to 5.2.0 for master-next:meta-fsl-arm/qt5-layer/recipes-qt/qt5/qtbase_5.2.0.bbappend
and I think I had to apply this patch as well (not sure if it's been applied to the repo yet):http://patchwork.openembedded.org/patch/65133/

Hope that helps! Otherwise, not completely sure what's going on. I don't know if you've tried it but it might be worth starting a new yocto tree just to try it out.. It shouldn't get that messed up but never know...
