[bitbake-devel] [PATCH] utils.py: Once we've printed errors messages, suppress the backtrace

[Richard Purdie]

Adding a generic backtrace to better_compile and better_exec is pointless,
therefore reraise the exception as a bb.BBHandledException so the
generic code doesn't confuse the user even more.
