What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Arduino 1.6 nightly build 22 Jan 2015
Ubuntu 14.04
arduino-tiny-0150-0020.zip

Please provide any additional information below.

Tried adding "-x" to arduino-tiny's platform.txt, does not help.
Compiling with other boards (ATMEGA328 for example) works fine. Only fails to 
compile on any board supported by arduino-tiny.
