Hello Mark,

thanks for your response.

Ubuntu 10.04 32-bit only, glibc 2.11.1
Linux sideways 2.6.32-25-generic-pae #44-Ubuntu SMP Fri Sep 17

$ . oe-init-build-env
$ which bitbake
/home/leon/sandbox/sidebranch/yocto/oe-core/scripts/bitbake

OE Build Configuration:
BB_VERSION        = "1.13.0"
METADATA_BRANCH   = "master"
METADATA_REVISION = "472c04ed1a8715243de0c5430883bc23d60aca19"
TARGET_ARCH       = "powerpc"
TARGET_OS         = "linux-gnuspe"
MACHINE           = "p2020rdb"
DISTRO            = "poky"
DISTRO_VERSION    = "0.9+snapshot-20110504"
TARGET_FPU        = ""

I could reproduce twice from scratch, and the problem repeats by
running bitbake core-image-minimal again.

On an earlier snapshot of oe-core with meta-openembedded, I didn't run
into this.

I will now rerun against MACHINE=mpc8315e-rdb.

Regards,

Leon.
