As far as 4.5.1 goes, the kernel crashes immediately on bootup.
I didn't diagnose this much as it seemed to be similar to the
problem reported 2011-01-31 18:52GMT
   'Kernel Panics on armv4t with gcc.4.5.1'
To that end, I tried to use the 4.5.2 patches from Nitin
which failed to build at all (reported this morning)

Do you have a tree with your changes?  I could try my armv5te
overlay to see what happens.

Thanks
