It could very well be related to the fact that I am building over NFS 
and the other problems that have come with it. I'm building with the bog 
standard vanilla poky with quemu arm uncommented. In this situation I 
would normally -c cleansstate and try again, but that function is also 
broken for me (again possibly NFS related).

I changed my NFS mount settings to force sync which makes it act like a 
more traditional hard drive but it doesn't seem to have done me any good.

I'm not back in work till Monday so I'll see if I can do anything more 
with it then. If anyone could confirm that they build on an NFS mount 
then that would be a massive help.

Cheers,
