[OE-core] [PATCH v2] pseudo: Upgrade to latest to fix openat() with a directory symlink [NAK]

While this is a real problem.  We need to put this patch on hold.

It seems to have caused really odd problems with the oe link management that were not there previously, such as:


WARNING: pinentry-1.1.0-r0 do_package_qa: QA Issue: pinentry: /usr/bin/pinentry is owned by uid 5002, which is the same as the user running bitbake. This may be due to host contamination [host-user-contaminated]

I'll continue to look into the problem.

Cheers,
Jason.
