This is the expected behavior.  The feature is currently available for
Google Chrome dev channel, but not in Chromium builds.  Sync won't be usable
in Chromium until we can build the feature entirely from source. Tim, who is
one of the developers of the bookmark sync stated:
We've been working in a proprietary environment until now because of the
dependency of having to build the complementary Google production server
environment for syncing.  As such, the code uses a small number of internal
libraries that we need to open-source or replace, as well as libraries that
would be redundant to what Chromium already includes. . . . We do *not* plan
on ever checking in the windows-only syncapi dll to the main chromium
repository.  So until the dll is no longer needed, the public repository
won't have all the bits to actually build Chromium with sync enabled.

The interfaces are open, and they are working on getting the sync engine
library to be part of Chromium.
