What was needed most was a defect detailing the configuration setup. The reason I have not hit this problem nor any of the other autobuilders was that it required a very specific way to setup the recipes to depend on each other, but not circularly.
Andrea sent full details to Bruce, who sent them to me and I built it this morning. It took very little time to isolate the problem but it was one of those oh so subtle issues (patch is sent to oe-core). Perhaps in the future we can just get a Bugzilla opened right away. I don't like regressions either. :-)
Andrea replied to me in IRC, "I'll test the new patch soon".
Cheers,
Jason.
