Yep. Just tried to build it. Wayland wants to link with wayland-egl:

| /home/vlad/ext/fsl-community/wandsolo/tmp/sysroots/x86_64-linux/usr/libexec/cortexa9hf-vfp-neon-poky-linux-gnueabi/gcc/arm-poky-linux-gnueabi/4.8.2/ld:
cannot find -lwayland-egl
| collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

As I understood, gpu-viv-bin-mx6q should provide it. But it provides
.pc file only. Any ideas?
