That's correct - the last commit on the upstream repository was Sep 7.

The instructions here say you should use the revision which is tagged "1.12.0":
<http://gumstix.org/software-development/open-embedded/61-using-the-open-embedded-build-system.html>
This revision is on the master branch, but is 22 revisions behind the head revision
on that branch.

It's not because you have the wrong revisions.

What failure are you seeing?

Doing a "git pull" after "git checkout 1.12.0" gets a complaint about
not being on a branch.  Is that a problem?

I can't build omap3-desktop-image because webkit won't build.  I'll
try the bitbake again and will post the errors in a moment.

Here's what I get from "git pull":

$ git checkout 1.12.0
Note: checking out '1.12.0'.

You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout.

If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:

  git checkout -b new_branch_name

HEAD is now at 2e667ba... Release 1.12.0

$ git pull
You are not currently on a branch, so I cannot use any
'branch.<branchname>.merge' in your configuration file.
Please specify which remote branch you want to use on the command
line and try again (e.g. 'git pull <repository> <refspec>').
See git-pull(1) for details.

No. The master branch is a consecutive series of commits, and "head"
refers to the most recent one (that you have a copy of). "1.12.0" is an
old commit, not the head of any branch. You can't pull until you check
out head. You *can* however do a "git fetch" to fetch any new revisions
without merging them.

The last documented stable version is 1.12.0, so you don't need to pull
and it wouldn't change anything anyhow.

If you're curious, and want to see what's new in the upstream repository,
you need to "git checkout head" before "git pull". That will fetch any new
commits (same as "git fetch"), merge them (same as "git merge"), which
also sets your "head" to the newest commit. This new head revision may
not work. You can use "git checkout 1.12.0" to get back.

I'm pretty sure that the last thing I need to build is webkit, because
"bitbake -k" doesn't want to build anything else after the webkit
build fails.  The failure I'm getting now is:

I will try shutting off the "make -j2" and cleaning the webkit build.
Sometimes bad makefile dependencies can bork parallel builds.
