That isn't quite the case. For OE-Core we have images using both 1.0
(openssh) and 1.1 installed together. Its true there are some issues if
you try and parallel install both the -dev packages but normal target
images are working.

We could probably "fix" the -dev images to an extent by making 1.1
replace 1.0 dev pieces.

The build time sysroot problem is harder unfortunately, I've ideas
about things we might be able to do but haven't experimented as yet.

Cheers,
