Two things need fixing:

1) earmv6hf does not install the .dtb files to the FAT partition
   anymore: download sets/dtb.tgz from earmv7hf, unpack it and copy
   the "dtb" directory over to the root directory on the FAT partition
   of your microSD card (so the .dtb files are installed as
   /dtb/blabla.dtb )
2) edit /config.txt on the FAT partition to boot /kernel.img on Pi 0
   and Pi 1 and /kernel7.img on the rest:

[pi0w]
kernel=/kernel.img
[pi0]
kernel=/kernel.img
[pi1]
kernel=/kernel.img
[all]
kernel=/kernel7.img

Jared just fixed this, so the next successful build should work again.
