Actually, at second look, it seems you are missing EMBEDDEDBUILD=1 in
your release.conf.  arm/armv6 targets should not create the 'ftp'
directory - the SoC u-boot loader address is baked in during the world
build, making it infeasible to create the ftp bits.

Except the u-boot loader address hasn't actually been used for about 2
years in arm builds. ?I don't know anything about this ftp stuff or
what this thread is about, but I do know that UBLDR_LOADADDR is no
longer used in arm builds, and thus should not be preventing anything
else from working.
