I did try 2.6.3 but it was even worse as reported, if anyone wants to use
it as starting point here it is:
http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core-contrib/commit/?h=jansa/master&id=4590c0145a7ae98e7ff7bbf40ec3e25471484f60

but then I've reverted both 2.6.3 and 2.6.2 upgrade and I don't plan to
work on it.
