Martin said, all those failing boards use PSP verstage. For the Skyrim board, it was selected due to a typo in the build configuration file, fixed in Ic41a91e0a6ecd254a86d0872da19a0d4d321b8e3 (configs/google_skyrim.no_video: Fix typo and regenerate) [1].

Now only the google/zork PSP verstage using boards fail.
