So gcc-4.6.3, eglibc-2.13, from poky/denzil branch also failed, the same as the poky/master branch with gcc-4.6.3, eglibc-2.13. So I guess the I'll need to do a diff between the Denx ELDK 5.2.1 release, which is based on poky/denzil, and that of the current poky/denzil branch to see which recipes are different, and to try and isolate the cause of the kernel panics, when trying to run init=/bash/sh.

Hopefully, that comparison will yield some clues.

Best regards,
