[bitbake-devel] [PATCH] Allow bitbake commands starting with do_

[Alex Franco]

The output of "bitbake, -c listtasks pkg" lists tasks with their real names
(starting with "do_"), but then "bitbake -c do_task" fails, as "do_" always
gets unconditionally prepended to task names. This patch handles this error
by always removing "do_" from the beginning of task names when the runqueue
is being constructed.
