the patch that moves babeltrace out of default check wasn't pulled in yet:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=142606453815125&w=2
also note there's another bug in test-all that prevents the test-all speed up, fixed by this patch:

I think we should have the possibility to work and commit new features even if the support is not yet in the main distros
for such features we could: - leave those features out of the default features check like we'll do for babeltrace - maybe use some sort of EXPERIMENTAL config option dependency once we have the .config file support ;-)
