The most straightforward fix there (with thanks to Phil Blundell) is to
just remove binutils-cross from the safe dependency list:
diff --git a/meta/classes/sstate.bbclass b/meta/classes/sstate.bbclass
index 1f85c54..be08a66 100644
--- a/meta/classes/sstate.bbclass
+++ b/meta/classes/sstate.bbclass

Is this the sort of fix you mean?
Thanks.
Mike.
