bootstage_mark_name calls timer_get_boot_us which inturn calls the arch timer. The arch timer uses the gd pointer to save the lastinc count. A call to bootstage_mark_name here results in a data abort as gd is uninitialized.

This bug will affect boards which don't have their own timer_get_boot_us() function.
Albert, I think we should try to get this in as a bug fix in the upcoming release.
Thanks for the fix Vikram.
Thanks Vikram and Simon; I'll pull this in today.
... actually, this will depend on whether my crt0 change gets in for 2013.01, as with this change, gd is already initialized when entering board_init_f().
Amicalement,
